Accessory in United States
Accessory Definition
Anything which is joined to another thing as an ornament, or to render it more perfect. For example, the halter of a horse, the frame of a picture, the keys of a house, and the like, each belong to the principal thing. The sale of the materials of a newspaper establishment will carry with it, as an accessory, the subscription list (2 Watts [Pa.] Ill) ; but a bequest of a house would not carry the furniture in it, as accessory to it (Domat, Civ. Law, p. 2, liv. 4, tit. 2, § 4, note 1). Accessorium non ducit, sed sequitur prindpale. Co. Litt. 152a. Used, also, in the same sense as Accessary (q.v.).

Practical Information
Note: Some of this information was last updated in 1982
One who, after the commission of a felony (in U.S. law), helps the felon to avoid or escape arrest, prosecution, or punishment with knowledge of the offender’s wrongful act or liability for such act. The one who aids is known as an accessory after the fact, and the felon who is aided is known as the principal. One who aids or encourages the felony but is too far away to participate in it is an accessory before the fact. See also accomplice (in U.S. law); aiding (in U.S. law) and abetting (in U.S. law).
