derogation

Read a random definition: subcombination claim

A quick definition of derogation:

Derogation is when a law is partially taken away or made less useful by a new law. It can also mean saying bad things about something or someone, which can make them seem less valuable. Sometimes, it can even mean taking away someone's rights or privileges. The word "derogate" is used as a verb to describe the act of doing these things.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Derogation refers to the partial repeal or abrogation of a law by a later act that limits its scope or impairs its utility and force. It can also mean disparagement or depreciation in value or estimation, or detraction, prejudice, or destruction of a grant or right.

1. The new law passed by the government is in derogation of the previous law that protected the rights of the citizens.

2. Some people argue that the derogation of family values has caused an increase in crime.

3. The attorney may face punishment for derogation from professional integrity.

The first example illustrates how a new law can limit the scope or impair the utility and force of a previous law. The second example shows how the depreciation of family values can have negative consequences. The third example demonstrates how derogation can refer to detraction or destruction of a grant or right, in this case, the professional integrity of an attorney.
