MOBBING AND RIOTING
(bouvier) | MOBBING AND RIOTING, Scotch law. The general term mobbing and rioting
includes all those convocations of the lieges for violent and unlawful
purposes, which are attended with injury to the persons or property of the
lieges, or terror and alarm to the neighborhood in which it takes place. The
two phrases are usually placed together, but, nevertheless, they have
distinct meanings, and are sometimes used separately in legal language; the
word mobbing being peculiarly applicable to the unlawful assemblage and
violence of a number of persons, and that of rioting to the outrageous
behaviour of a single individual. Alison, Prin. C. Law of Scotl. c. 23, p.
509.
