Term: INCAPAX DOLI

A more thorough explanation:
INCAPAX DOLI
Incapax doli is a Latin term that means "incapable of guilt." It refers to the legal concept that a person, usually a child, is too young to understand the consequences of their actions and therefore cannot be held responsible for committing a crime.
An example of incapax doli is a 7-year-old child who accidentally breaks a neighbor's window while playing with a ball. The child cannot be held responsible for the damage because they are too young to understand the consequences of their actions.
Another example is a 12-year-old who steals a candy bar from a store. While the act is still considered theft, the child may be deemed incapax doli and not held fully responsible for their actions.
Incapax doli is a legal defense used to protect children who are too young to understand the consequences of their actions. It recognizes that children are not fully developed mentally and emotionally and may not have the same level of understanding as adults. The examples illustrate how incapax doli can be applied in different situations to protect children from being held fully responsible for their actions.
