Plural of embracery; instances or cases of the legal offense of embracing a jury.
From embracery (embrace + -ery, a suffix forming abstract nouns) in the plural. The -ery suffix comes from Old French and typically creates nouns referring to practices, places, or behaviors.
English plural forms can hide interesting history—'embraceries' is super rare because the actual crime of jury tampering is now prosecuted under modern laws, so the old legal term mostly survives in legal history books.
