RASCATL

from Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856)
RASCATL. An opprobrious term, applied to persons of bad character. The law 
does not presume that a damage has arisen because the defendant has been 
called a rascal, and therefore no general damages can be recovered for it; 
if the party has received special damages in consequence of being so called, 
be can recover a recompense to indemnify him for his loss.
