Derogation
Derogation is the partial
revocation of a law, as opposed to
abrogation or the total abolition of a law. The term is used in both
civil law and
common law. It is sometimes used, loosely, to mean abrogation, as in the legal maxim:
Lex posterior derogat priori, i.e. a subsequent law imparts the abolition of a previous one.
