AUTREFOIS ATTAINT
(bouvier)
AUTREFOIS ATTAINT, crim. law. Formerly attainted.
2. This is a good plea in bar, where a second trial would be quite
superfluous. Co. Litt. 390 b, note 2; 4 Bl. Com. 336. Where, therefore, any
advantage either to public justice, or private individuals, would arise from
a second prosecution, the plea will not prevent it; as where the criminal is
indicted for treason after an attainder of felony, in which case the
punishment will be more severe and more extensive. 3 Chit. Cr. Law, 464.

BILL OF ATTAINDER
(bouvier)
BILL OF ATTAINDER, legislation, punishment. An act of the legislature by

confiscated.
2. The Constitution of the United States declares that no state shall

acts of confiscation, were passed to a wide extent. The evils resulting from
them, in times of more cool reflection, were discovered to have far
outweighed any imagined good. Story on Const. Sec. 1367. Vide Attainder;
Bill of Pains and Penalties.
