A "receivership" is when a family court judge places property under the court's control and appoints a person called a "receiver" to preserve it. The receivership stops lenders from foreclosing, attaching, garnishing, sequestering, or selling the property without the court's permission.

I cannot imagine what it must be like for the family and the young lady he is accused of abusing. Nothing makes any sense.
