Term: noctanter

Definition: Noctanter is a word from Latin that means "by night."

A more thorough explanation:

Noctanter is a legal term that means "by night." It was used in the past to refer to a chancery writ that was issued to a sheriff to start the process of recovering damages for destroying a ditch or hedge. If someone destroyed a ditch or hedge, the neighboring villagers were held responsible for the damages unless they reported the offender.
