Derogation
 |
Derogation is a legal term of art,[1][2] which allows for part or all of a provision in a legal measure to be applied differently, or not at all, in certain cases.[3] The term is also used in Catholic canon law,[4][full citation needed] and in this context differs from dispensation in that it applies to the law, whereas dispensation applies to specific people affected by the law.
