What will be an ideal response?
A seizure of property occurs "when there is some meaningful interference with an individual's possessory interest in that property." In determining whether or not a piece of property is "seized," courts often refer to actual and constructive possessions. A piece of property is in a person's actual possession if he or she is physically holding or grasping the property. Constructive possession, by comparison, refers to possession of property without physical contact.
