A quick definition of pessimi exempli:

Term: PESSIMI EXEMPLI

Definition: Pessimi exempli means the worst example. It is a Latin term used to describe actions or decisions that set a bad precedent for others to follow. For example, if someone is let off the hook for committing a crime because they were drunk, it would be pessimi exempli because it could encourage others to commit crimes while under the influence of alcohol. Similarly, if someone benefits from a contract that was obtained through fraud, it would be pessimi exempli because it could encourage others to be dishonest in their dealings. In short, pessimi exempli refers to actions that could lead others to be unfair, dishonest, or careless in their behavior.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Pessimi exempli is a Latin term that means "of the worst example." It refers to actions or decisions that set a bad example for others to follow.

For example, if a judge were to acquit a person of a crime because they were under the influence of alcohol, it would be pessimi exempli. This is because it would send a message that it is okay to commit crimes while under the influence of alcohol. Similarly, if a person were to benefit from a contract that was induced by fraud, it would also be pessimi exempli. This is because it would encourage others to be dishonest in their dealings.

These examples illustrate how pessimi exempli can have a negative impact on society. When people see others getting away with bad behavior, they may be more likely to engage in similar behavior themselves. This can lead to a breakdown of trust and a lack of respect for the law.
