Mopery () is a vague, informal name for minor offenses. The word is based on the verb to mope, which originally meant to wander aimlessly; it only later acquired the sense "to be bored and depressed". The word mope appears to have first been used in the 16th century, and appears in Shakespeare's works. It has occasionally been put into use by police as a charge to bring when no other legitimate charge seems appropriate. It has also been used for satiric and/or comedic effect in books and films. |
