mopery

Loitering while walking. Hanging out in an environ, i.e. a particular block; moving so as to avoid arrest on more traditional loitering charges. Mopery is not a real charge or violation of the law, but a descriptive term, stretching the legalities of loitering, which would include staying in one place.

So you are convicted of mopery, not loitering.
