CAPTION
(bouvier) | CAPTION, practice. That part of a legal instrument, as a 'Commission,
indictment, &c., which shows where, when, and by what authority it was
taken, found or executed. As to the forms and requisites of captions, see 1
Murph. 281; 8 Yerg. 514; 4 Iredell, 113; 6 Miss,. 469; 1 Scam. 456; 5 How.
Mis. 20; 6 Blackf. 299; 1 Hawks, 354; 1 Brev. 169.
2. In the English practice, when an inferior court in obedience to the
writ of certiorari, returns an indictment into the K. B., it is annexed to
the caption, then called a schedule, and the caption concludes with stating,
that "it is presented in manner and form as appears in a certain indictment
thereto annexed," and the caption and indictment are returned on separate
parchments. 1 Saund. 309, n. 2. Vide Dane's Ab. Index, h.t.
3. Caption is another name for arrest. CAPTIVE. By this term is
understood one who has been taken; it is usually applied to prisoners of
war. (q.v.) Although he has lost his liberty, a captive does not by his
captivity lose his civil rights.

RECAPTION
(bouvier) | RECAPTION, remedies. The act of a person who has been deprived of the
custody of another to which he is legally entitled, by which he regains the
peaceable custody of such person; or of the owner of personal or real
property who has been deprived of his possession, by which he retakes
possession, peaceably. In each of these cases the law allows the recaption
of the person or of the property, provided he can do so without occasioning
a breach of the peace, or an injury to a third person who has not been a
party to the wrong. 3 Inst. 134; 2 Rolle, Rep. 55, 6; Id. 208; 2 Rolle, Abr.
565; 3 Bl. Comm. 5; 3 Bouv. Inst. n. 2440, et seq.
2. Recaption may be made of a person, of personal property, of real
property; each of these will be separately examined.
3.-1. The right of recaption of a person is confined to a husband in
re-taking his wife; a parent, his child, of whom he has the custody; a
master, his apprentice and, according to Blackstone, a master, his servant;
but this must be limited to a servant who assents to the recaption; in these
cases, the party injured may peaceably enter the house of the wrongdoer,
without a demand being first made, the outer door being open, and take and
carry away the person wrongfully detained. He may also enter peaceably into
the house of a person harboring, who was not concerned in the original
abduction. 8 Bing. R. 186; S. C. 21 Eng. C. L. Rep. 265.
4.-2. The same principles extend to the right of recaption of personal
property. In this sort of recaption, too much care cannot be observed to
avoid any personal injury or breach of the peace.
5.-3. In the recaption of real estate the owner may, in the absence of
the occupier, break open the outer door of a house and take possession; but
if, in regaining his possession, the party be guilty of a forcible entry and
breach of the peace, he may be indicted; but the wrongdoer or person who had
no right to the possession, cannot sustain any action for such forcible
regaining possession merely. 1 Chit. Pr. 646.

USUCAPTION
(bouvier) | USUCAPTION, civil law. The manner of acquiring property in things by the
lapse of time required by law.
2. It differs from prescription, which has the same sense, and means,
in addition, the manner of acquiring and losing, by the effect of time
regulated by law, all sorts of rights and actions. Merl. Repert. mot
Prescription, tom. xii. page 671; Ayl. Pand. 320; Wood's Inst. Civ. Law,
165; Lecons Elem. du Dr. Rom. Sec. 437; 1 Browne's Civ. Law, 264, n.;
vattel, ii. 2, c. 2, Sec. 140.

WRIT OF RECAPTION
(bouvier) | WRIT OF RECAPTION, practice. This writ lies where, pending an action of
replevin, the same distrainor takes, for the same supposed cause, the cattle
or goods of the same distrainee. See F. N. B. 169.
2. This writ is nearly obsolete, as trespass, which is found to be a
preferable remedy, lies for the second taking; and, as the defendant cannot
justify, the plaintiff must necessarily recover damages proportioned to the
injury.
