A quick definition of passive conduct:

Passive conduct is when someone doesn't do anything or take action. Conduct means how a person behaves, whether they do something or not. For example, if someone doesn't help someone who is hurt, that is passive conduct. It's important to know that sometimes people can't help or do something, and that's okay. But if someone could have helped and chose not to, that's passive conduct.

A more thorough explanation:

Passive conduct refers to a person's behavior that does not involve exerting their will on the external world. This is in contrast to active conduct, which involves a person doing something by exerting their will on the external world.

For example, if someone is sitting quietly and not doing anything, they are exhibiting passive conduct. On the other hand, if someone is actively engaging in a conversation or playing a sport, they are exhibiting active conduct.

Passive conduct can also refer to behavior that is not reasonably expected to have a certain result. For instance, if someone accidentally causes harm to another person while engaging in passive conduct, they may not be held liable for the harmful result produced by it.

Overall, passive conduct is characterized by a lack of action or willful behavior, and it is important to distinguish it from active conduct in various legal contexts.
