Name
One or more words used to distinguish a particular individual, as Socrates, Benjamin Franklin.
Plea

Trespass
Torts. An unlawful act committed with violence, ti et armis, to the person, property or relative rights of another. Every felony includes a tres-pass, in common parlance, such acts are not in general considered as tres-passes, yet they subject the offender to an action of trespass after his conviction or acquittal. 2) Remedies. The name of an action, instituted for the recovery of damages, for a wrong committed against the plaintiff, with immediate force; as an assault and battery against the person; an unlawful entry into his, land, and an unlawful injury with direct force to his personal property.

Assault
The touching of another person with an intent to harm, without that person's consent.
Battery
Latin batuere, to beat. The unlawful beating of another. Any unlawful touching of person of another, either by the agressor or by any person or thing set in motion by him. The least touching of another's person willfully, or in anger, is a battery.

Plaintiff
The party who begins an action; the party who complains or sues in an action and is named as such in the court's records. Also called a petitioner.
Right
1) Sometimes it signifies a law, as when we say that natural right requires us to keep our promises, or that it commands restitution, or that it forbids murder. In our language it is seldom used in this sense. 2) It sometimes means that quality in our actions by which they are denominated just ones. This is usually denominated rectitude. 3) It is that quality in a person by which he can do certain actions, or possess certain things which belong to him by virtue of some title. In this sense, we use it when we say that a man has a right to his estate or a right to defend himself.
