CosenageTorts. Deceit, fraud: that kind of circumvention and wrong, which has no other specific name.
RELATED TERMS--------------------------------------
Deceit
Any devise or false representation by which one man misleads another to his injury. Formerly, the remedy was a "writ of deceit"; now, unless otherwise provided by statute, it is by an "action of trespass on the case". The defendant or his agent must have been guilty of some moral wrong; legal fraud alone will not support the action.
Fraud
Contracts, torts. Any trick or artifice employed by one person to induce another to fall into an error, or to detain him in it, so that he may make an agreement contrary to his interest. The fraud may consist either, first, in the misrepresentation, or, secondly, in the concealment of a material fact. Fraud, force and vexation, are odious in law.
Circumvention
Torts, Scotch law. Any act of fraud whereby a person is reduced to a deed by decreet.
Wrong
An injury; a tort a violation of right. In its most usual sense, wrong signifies an injury committed to the person or property of another, or to his relative rights, unconnected with contract; and these wrongs are committed with or without force. But in a more extended signification, wrong includes the violation of a contract; a failure by a man to perform his undertaking or promise is a wrong or injury to him to whom it was made.
Name
One or more words used to distinguish a particular individual, as Socrates, Benjamin Franklin.

Costs
This is a term often used in judgments as in "the defendant will pay costs." When a person is condemned to "costs" it means that he has to pay all the court costs such as the fees for bringing the action, witness fees and other fees paid out by the other side in bringing the action to justice. A court can also condemn a losing party to "special costs" but this is considered punitive as it would include the other side's lawyer bill. The rule in most places is that "costs follows the event" which means that the loser pays. In most states, the court has the final say on costs and may decide not to make an order on costs.
