RELATED TERMS--------------------------------------
Criminal

Law
A rule or body of rules of conduct inherent in human nature and essential to or binding upon human society. The learned profession that is mastered by graduate study in a law school and that is responsible for the judicial system.
Homicide
Criminal law. According to Blackstone, it is the killing of any human creature. This is the most extensive sense of this word, in which the intention is not considered. But in a more limited sense, it is always understood that the killing is by human agency, and Hawkins defines it to be the killing of a man by a man.Homicide may perhaps be described to be the destruction of the life of one human being, either by himself, or by the act, procurement, or culpable omission of another. When the death has been intentionally caused by the deceased himself, the offender is called felo de se; when it is caused by another, it is justifiable, excusable, or felonious. The person killed must have been born; the killing before birth is balled foeticide.
Misadventure
Criminal law, torts. An accident by which an injury occurs to another.
Said
Before mentioned.
Take
This is a technical expression which signifies to be entitled to; as, a devisee will take under the will. To take also signifies to seize, as to take and carry away.
Place
Pleading, evidence. A particular portion of space; locality.
When
1) At which time, in wills, standing by itself unqualified and unexplained, this is a word of condition denoting the time at which the gift is to continence. 2) The context of a will may show that the word when is to be applied to the possession only, not to the vesting of a legacy; but to justify this construction, there must be circumstances, or other expressions in the will, showing such to have been the testator's intent.
Lawful
That which is not forbidden by law. Id omne licitum est, quod non est legibus prohibitum, quamobrem, quod, lege permittente, fit, poenam non meretur. To be valid a contract must be lawful.
Act
1) Civil law, contracts. A writing which states in a legal form that a thing has been said, done, or agreed. 2) Evidence. The act of one of several conspirators, performed inpursuance of the common design, is evidence against all of them.
Without
