7. Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856) |
ESCAPE. An escape is tho deliverance of a person who is lawfully imprisoned,
out of prison, before such a person is entitled to such deliverance by law.
5 Mass. 310.
2. It will be proper to consider, first, what is a lawful imprisonment;
and, secondly, the different kinds of escapes.
3. When a man is imprisoned in a proper place under the process of a
court having jurisdiction in the case, he is lawfully imprisoned,
notwithstanding the proceedings may be irregular; but if the court has not
jurisdiction the imprisonment is unlawful, whether the process be regular or
otherwise. Bac. Ab. Escape. in civil cases, A 1; 13 John. 378; 5 John. 89; 1
Cowen, 309 8 Cowen, 192; 1 Root, R. 288.
4. Escapes are divided into voluntary and negligent; actual or
constructive; civil and criminal and escapes on mesne process and execution.
5.-1. A voluntary escape is the giving to a prisoner, voluntarily,
any liberty not authorized by law. 5 Mass. 310; 2 Chipm. 11. Letting a
prisoner confined under final process, out of prison for any, even the
shortest time, is an escape, although he afterwards return; 2 Bl. Rep. 1048;
1 Roll. Ab. 806; and this may be, (as in the case of imprisonment under a
ca. sa.) although an officer may accompany him. 3 Co. 44 a Plowd. 37; Hob.
202; 1 Bos. & Pull. 24 2 Bl. Rep. 1048.
6. The effect of a voluntary escape in a civil case, when the prisoner
is confined under final process, is to discharge the debtor, so that he
cannot be retaken by the sheriff; but he may be again arrested if he was
confined only on mesne process. 2 T. R. 172; 2 Barn. & A. 56. And the
plaintiff may retake the prisoner in either case. In a criminal case, on the
contrary, the officer not only has a right to recapture his prisoner, but it
is his duty to do so. 6 Hill, 344; Bac. Ab. Escape in civil cases, C.
7.-2. A negligent escape takes place when the prisoner goes at large,
unlawfully, either because the building or prison in which he is confined is
too weak to hold him, or because the keeper by carelessness lets him go out
of prison.
8. The consequences of a negligent escape are not so favorable to the
prisoner confined under final process, as they are when the escape is
voluntary, because in this case, the prisoner is to blame. He may therefore
be retaken.
9.-3. The escape is actual, when the prisoner in fact gets out of
prison and unlawfully regains his liberty.
10.-4. A constructive escape takes place when the prisoner obtains
more liberty than the law allows, although he still remains in confinement
The following cases are examples of such escapes: When a man marries his
prisoner. Plowd. 17; Bac. Ab. Escape, B 3. If an underkeeper be taken in
execution, and delivered at the prison, and neither the sheriff nor any
authorized person be there to receive him. 5 Mass. 310. And when the keeper
of a prison made one of the prisoners confined for a debt a turnkey, and
trusted him with the keys, it was held that this was a constructive escape.
2 Mason, 486.
11. Escapes in civil cases are, when the prisoner is charged in
execution or on mesne process for a debt or duty, and not for a criminal
offence, and he unlawfully gains his liberty. In this case, we have seen,
the prisoner may be retaken, if the escape have not been voluntary; and that
he may be retaken by the plaintiff when the escape has taken place without
his fault, whether the defendant be confined in execution or not; and that
the sheriff may retake the prisoner, who has been liberated by him, when he
was not confined on final process.
12. Escapes in criminal cases take place when a person lawfully in
prison, charged with a crime or under sentence, regains his liberty
unlawfully. The prisoner being to blame for not submitting to the law, and
in effecting his escape, may be retaken whether the escape was voluntary or
not. And he may be indicted, fined and imprisoned for so escaping. See
Prison.
13. Escape on mesne process is where the prisoner is not confined on
final process, but on some other process issued in the course of the
proceedings, and unlawfully obtains his liberty, such escape does not make
the officer liable, provided that on the return day of the writ, the
prisoner is forthcoming.
14. Escape on final process is when the prisoner obtains his liberty
unlawfully while lawfully confined, and under an execution or other final
decree. The officer is then, in general, liable to the plaintiff for the
amount of the debt.

8. Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856) |
ESCAPE, WARRANT. A warrant issued in England against a person who being
charged in custody in the king's bench or Fleet prison, in execution or
mesne process, escapes and goes at large. Jacob's L. D. h.t.
