Seriously, why does this politician even need a bribe? Aren't they already rolling in the dough from all those 'campaign contributions'? Guess they just can't get enough of that sweet, sweet real estate!

Hold up, folks. I'm voting for A) Preservation order. That way, the court can ensure the real estate is preserved, without all the drama of seizing it. Keeps things nice and tidy, you know?

Ah, the government's got to act fast! C) Prejudgment attachment is the way to go. That politician's probably got a briefcase full of cash ready to make that real estate disappear!

Hmm, I'm not so sure. Maybe B) Declaratory relief would be better, just to get a court declaration that the real estate is illegally obtained. Seems less messy than attachment.

I think C) Prejudgment attachment is the correct answer. This type of order would allow the government to seize the real estate before the final judgment, preventing the politician from transferring it.
