Adjective
botleas (not comparable)
(Anglo-Saxon England, law, of a crime) Too grievous to be atoned for by the payment of a bōt or bōte; irredeemable, unpardonable.
bōtlēas
bootless, unpardonable, what cannot be redeemed, recompensed or expiated by the payment of boot
Some wrongs in later law codes were botleas ‘without remedy’ (e.g. theft, open murder, arson, treason against one's lord), that is, unable to be compensated, and those convicted of a botleas crime were at the king's mercy. Source: Internet
