A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Contrectatae (kon-trek-tay-tee) is a Latin term used in Scots law to refer to things that have been improperly used or tampered with by a person, such as a thief.

Examples: If a thief breaks into a house and steals a television, the television becomes contrectatae. If the thief tries to sell the television to someone else, that person would also be in possession of contrectatae property.
