(gcide) | fine \fine\ (f[imac]n), a. [Compar. finer (f[imac]n"[~e]r);
superl. finest.] [F. fin, LL. finus fine, pure, fr. L.
finire to finish; cf. finitus, p. p., finished, completed
(hence the sense accomplished, perfect.) See Finish, and

Syn: Fine, Beautiful.
Usage: When used as a word of praise, fine (being opposed to
coarse) denotes no "ordinary thing of its kind." It is
not as strong as beautiful, in reference to the single
attribute implied in the latter term; but when we
speak of a fine woman, we include a greater variety of
particulars, viz., all the qualities which become a
woman, -- breeding, sentiment, tact, etc. The term is
equally comprehensive when we speak of a fine garden,
landscape, horse, poem, etc.; and, though applied to a
great variety of objects, the word has still a very
definite sense, denoting a high degree of
characteristic excellence.

FINE
(bouvier) | FINE. This word has various significations. It is employed, 1. To mean a sum
of money, which, by judgment of a competent jurisdiction, is required to be
paid for the punishment of an offence. 2. To designate the amount paid by
the tenant, on his entrance, to the lord. 3. To signify a special kind of

|
FINE
(bouvier) | FINE, conveyance, Practice. An amicable composition or agreement of a suit,
either actual or fictitious, by leave of the court, by which the lands in
question become, or are acknowledged to be the right of one of the parties.
Co. Litt. 120; 2 Bl. Com. 349; Bac. Abr. Fines and Recoveries. A fine is so
called, because it puts an end, not only to the suit thus commenced, but
also to all other suits and controversies concerning the same matter. Such
concords, says Doddridge, (Eng. Lawyer, 84, 85,) have been in use in the
civil law, and are called transactions (q.v.) whereof they say thus:
Transactiones sunt de eis quae in controversia sunt, a, lite futura aut
pendente ad certam compositionem reducuntur, dando aliquid vel accipiendo.
Or shorter, thus: Transactio est de re dubia et lite ancipite ne dum ad
finem ducta, non gratuita pactio. It is commonly defined an assurance by
matter of record, and is founded upon a supposed previously existing right,
and upon a writ requiring the party to perform his covenant; although a fine
may be levied upon any writ by which lands may be demanded, charged, or
bound. It has also been defined an acknowledgment on record of a previous
gift or feoffment, and prima facie carries a fee, although it may be limited
to an estate for life or in fee tail. Prest. on Convey. 200, 202, 268, 269 2
Bl. Com. 348-9.
2. The stat. 18 E. I., called modus levandi fines, declares and
regulates the manner in which they should be levied and carried on and that
is as follows: 1. The party to whom the land is conveyed or assured,
commences an action at law against the other, generally an action of
covenant, by suing out of a writ of praecipe, called a writ of covenant,
that the one shall convey the lands to the other, on the breach of which
agreement the action is brought. The suit being thus commenced, then
follows,
2. The licentia concordandi, or leave to compromise the suit. 3. The
concord or agreement itself, after leave obtained by the court; this is
usually an acknowledgment from the deforciants, that the lands in question
are the lands of the complainants. 4. The note of the fine, which is only an
abstract of the writ of covenant, and the concord naming the parties, the
parcels of land, and the agreement. 5. The foot of the fine or the
conclusion of it, which includes the whole matter, reciting the parties,
day, year, and place, and before whom it was acknowledged or levied.
3. Fines thus levied, are of four kinds. 1. What in law French is
called a fine sur cognizance de droit, come ceo que il ad de son done; or a
fine upon the acknowledgment of the right of the cognizee, as that which he
has of the gift of the cognizor. This fine is called a feoffment of record.
2. A fine sur cognizance de droit tantum, or acknowledgment of the right
merely. 3. A fine sur concessit, is where the cognizor, in order to make an
end of disputes, though he acknowledges no precedent right, yet grants to
the consignee an estate de novo, usually for life or years, by way of a
supposed composition. 4. A fine sur done grant et render, which is a double
fine, comprehending the fine sur cognizance de droit come ceo, &c., and the
fine sur concessit; and may be used to convey particular limitations of
estate, and to persons who are strangers, or not named in the writ of the
covenant, whereas the fine sur cognizance de droit come ceo &c., conveys
nothing but an absolute estate either of inheritance, or at least of
freehold. Salk. 340. In this last species of fines, the cognizee, after the
right is acknowledged to be in him, grants back again, or renders to the
cognizor, or perhaps to a stranger some other estate in the premises. 2 Bl.
Com. 348 to 358. See Cruise on Fines; Vin. Abr. Fine; Sheph. Touch. c. 2;
Bac. Ab. Fines and Recoveries; Com. Dig. Fine.

FINE
(bouvier) | FINE, criminal law. Pecuniary punishment imposed by a lawful tribunal, upon
a person convicted of crime or misdemeanor. See Shep. Touchs. 2; Bac. Abr.
Fines and Amercements.
2. The amount of the fine is frequently left to the discretion of the
court, who ought to proportion the fine to the offence. To prevent the abuse
of excessive fines, the Constitution of the United States directs that
"excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor
cruel and unusual punishments inflicted." Amendm. to the Constitution, art.
8. See Division of opinion.
