CIPPI

CIPPI is a term used in Law Latin that refers to a punishment called "stocks".

During the medieval times, people who committed minor crimes were punished by being placed in the stocks. The stocks were a wooden frame with holes for the head and hands, where the offender would be locked in public for a certain amount of time as a form of humiliation and punishment.

Another example of the use of CIPPI is in the book "The Scarlet Letter" by Nathaniel Hawthorne. In the novel, the protagonist Hester Prynne is punished for adultery by being placed in the stocks and publicly shamed.
