Falsicrimen


Fal′si-cri′men

.
[L.]
(Civ. Law)
The crime of falsifying.
☞ This term in the Roman law included not only forgery, but every species of fraud and deceit. It never has been used in so extensive a sense in modern common law, in which its predominant significance is forgery, though it also includes perjury and offenses of a like character.
