against the form of the statute

Read a random definition: workpiece

A quick definition of against the form of the statute:

Against the form of the statute: This means that someone has done something that goes against the rules set out in the law. It's like breaking a game's rules. When someone is accused of doing something against the form of the statute, it means they may have committed a crime. This phrase is often used in legal documents and is a way of saying that someone has broken the law.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Against the form of the statute means that something is contrary to the requirements of the law. This phrase is often used in legal indictments to indicate that the behavior being alleged is a criminal offense because it violates a specific statute.

For example, if someone is charged with driving under the influence of alcohol, the indictment might conclude with the phrase "against the form of the statute in such case made and provided." This means that the person's behavior violated the specific laws that prohibit driving while intoxicated.

Another example might be if someone is accused of stealing property. The indictment might conclude with the phrase "against the form of the statute in such case made and provided." This means that the person's behavior violated the specific laws that prohibit theft.

In both of these examples, the phrase "against the form of the statute" is used to indicate that the behavior being alleged is a criminal offense because it violates a specific law.
