De parco fracto

De parco fracto (Law Latin "of pound breach") is a historical common-law writ against a person, often an owner, "who breaks into a pound to rescue animals that have been legally distrained and impounded."[1]

The writ is mentioned in Blackstone's Commentaries on the Laws of England: "And, being thus in the custody of the law, the taking them back by force is looked upon as an atrocious injury, and denominated a rescous, for which the distreinor has a remedy in damages, either by writ of rescous, in case they were going to the pound, or by writ de parco fracto, or pound-breach, in case they were actually impounded."[2]

gollark: Oh. I see. Hm.
gollark: Well, this exposes an issue with `load` sandboxing, then.
gollark: An angle I thought of is editing the string metatable so the `:match` goes wrong, but that would be hard.
gollark: I don't think that would work, you could probably only redirect the sandboxed `term`.
gollark: What you *can* still do is trigger the `begin_uninstall_process` thing, and send that input via spoofing `key`/`char`, but of course there's no way to capture its output.
