replevin: A legal remedy by which one party can take specific property from another party pending a decision as to who has the right to possess it. The party thus getting possession must post a bond. The party from whom the property was replevied can in some states get it back by a counter action in replevin plus a bond. The action does not decide who owns the property, but merely who has the right to possession. 3, record 1, English, - replevin
