Litigation Hold

Legal hold is a communication or notice requiring a company to preserve all data that may relate to a legal action involving the company. This requirement ensures that the data in question will be available for the discovery process prior to litigation.   Legal holds can encompass business procedures affecting active data, including, but not limited to, backup tape recycling.

Also known as also a hold, preservation order, suspension order, freeze notice, hold order, or hold notice.
