Hence, jurid. t. t., the bringing of an action, whether civil or criminal, in bad faith:

actoris calumnia quoque coërcetur,

litigiousness on the part of the plaintiff, Just. Inst. 4, 16, 1 Sandars ad loc.; Gai Inst. 4, 174: vetus calumniae actio, a prosecution for blackmail or malicious prosecution, id. ib.: calumniam jurare, to take the oath that the action is brought or defence offered in good faith, Cael. ap. Cic. Fam. 8, 8, 3: sei juraverit calumniae causā non postulare, Lex Acil. Repetund. 19; Dig. 39, 2, 7; cf.: praeter jusjurandum exigere non calumniae causā infitias ire, Gai Inst. 4, 172:

Dig. 39, 2, 13, § 3: jusjurandum de calumniā, Gai Inst. 4, 179; Dig. 12, 3, 34 al.: et quidem calumniae judicium adversus omnes actiones locum habet, a conviction in a cross-action for malicious prosecution, Gai Inst. 4, 175:

turpissimam personam calumniae honestae civitati inponere,

to fasten the vile character of a malicious prosecutor upon, Cic. Verr. 2, 2, 17, § 43:

sine ignominiā calumniae accusationem relinquere non posse,

id. Clu. 31, 86.— The person convicted of this charge was branded on the forehead with the letter K; v. calumniator.—

hic illo privato judicio, mihi credite, calumniam non effugiet,

Cic. Clu. 59, 163: scito C. Sempronium Rufum, mel ac delicias tuas, calumniam maximo plausu tulisse, Cael. ap. Cic. Fam. 8, 8, 1:

accusare alienae dominationis scelerisque socius propter calumniae metum non est ausus,

Cic. Dom. 19, 49:

perinde poenā teneri ac si publico judicio calumniae condemnatus,

Tac. A. 14, 41:

Of abstr. things: in hac igitur calumniā timoris et caecae suspitionis tormento, cum plurima ad alieni sensūs conjecturam, non ad suum judicium scribantur, i. e. when the writer ' s mind is made the fool of his fears, Caecil. ap. Cic. Fam. 6, 7, 4. —

Contra se, a mistaken severity towards one ' s self:

inveni qui Ciceroni crederent, eum (Calvum) nimiā contra se calumniā verum sanguinem perdidisse,

Quint. 10, 1, 115 (referring to Cic. Brut. 82, 283: nimium inquirens in se atque ipse sese observans, metuensque ne vitiosum colligeret, etiam verum sanguinem deperdebat).
