lock in (tie up) equity or capital; (succession) take such out of the free estate Explanation: I am pinching Phil G's idea of tying up, even though some colleagiues don't always credit my ideas. Would help top know if the póliza is de crédito (a loan agreement) or de seguro (an insurance policy). The indisponer has echoes of the 'cuota disponsible' - the free estate a testator or testatrix can freely dispose of without ref. to forced heirship of next-of-kin alias automatic heirs (Scots law: entitled to a legitim). If the context is one of personal succession, then this is what the 'indisposable' may be getting at. Example sentence(s):
