Managing S3 Object Lock using S3 Batch Operations

With S3 Object Lock, you can place a legal hold on an object version. Like setting a retention period, a legal hold prevents an object version from being overwritten or deleted. However, a legal hold doesn't have an associated retention period and remains in effect until removed. For more information, see S3 Object Lock legal hold.
