Generalia Specialibus Non Derogant Law and Legal Definition
Generalia specialibus non derogant is a Latin maxim which means universal things do not detract from specific things. This well-known proposition of law says that when a matter falls under any specific provision, then it must be governed by that provision and not by the general provision. The general provisions must admit to the specific provisions of law. It is a basic principle of statutory interpretation.
