Property preservation is a compulsory measure taken by the court in response to special emergencies that arise during litigation to restrict the parties from disposing of certain properties in order to ensure the execution of effective court judgments in the future and to protect the legitimate rights and interests of the parties in a timely manner.

Paragraph 1 of Article 92 of my country's Civil Procedure Law stipulates: "In cases where the judgment may be impossible or difficult to execute due to the behavior of one of the parties or other reasons, the People's Court may, upon the application of the party, make a property preservation order. Ruling; if the parties have not filed an application, the people's court may also rule to take property preservation measures when necessary. "The application of property preservation should generally meet the following conditions: first, it must be an action for payment; second, it must be an act of one of the parties. or other reasons that may make future judgments unenforceable or difficult to enforce; third, it must be limited to the scope of the request or the property related to the case.

Stocks are certificates issued by a joint-stock company to prove that shareholders have rights and interests in the company. They are a type of securities, contain a certain amount (RMB) of face value, and are transferable (listed and traded) under certain conditions.

my country's "General Principles of Civil Law" stipulates that citizens can own ownership of stocks and other securities.

In real life, many people do own stocks and other securities, and stocks have become part of many people's legal property.

Therefore, as long as the conditions for property preservation are met, it is legal and necessary for the People's Court to conduct property preservation of stocks in accordance with the law.
