Definition
An archaic legal term for the act of attainting someone, or the person who has been attainted (disgraced or stripped of rights).
Etymology
From attaint (archaic: to tarnish, disgrace) + '-or' (one who; or result of action), from Old French 'atteint' meaning 'touched' or 'tainted,' related to Latin 'attingere.'
Kelly Says
In medieval and Tudor England, 'attainder' (similar word) was a horrifying legal punishment that could wipe out a family—it stripped someone of title, land, and rights, and even affected their heirs, making it a 'social death' worse than execution in some ways.
