This is a punishment for willful or malicious acts.

informant or show that reasonable effort has been made to locate him. 3. ELECTRONIC MONITORING – Use of an electronic device to keep an eye on where a

4. ELECTRONIC TECHNOLOGY - includes, but is not limited to computer modem, magnetic
media, optical disk, facsimile machine, or telephone. 5. ELEMENTS OF A CRIME - Specific factors that define a crime which the prosecution must
prove beyond a reasonable doubt in order to obtain a conviction. The elements that must be proven are 1) that a crime has actually occurred, 2) that the accused intended the crime to happen, and 3) a timely relationship between the first two factors.
6. EMANCIPATION – A legal way for children to become adults before they are 18. Once a child is

number. For example, the U.S. circuit courts of appeals usually use panels of three judges, but all the judges in the court may decide certain matters together. When that happens, they are sitting "en banc" (sometimes spelled "in banc"). It comes from the French language and means "on the bench."
11. ENDORSE - To sign your name on a document to authorize its contents or transfer (as in a check
