Sometimes, the wording of a law or contract is vague and imprecise, and it allows people to abuse it, but doing so goes against the spirit of the law or the contract when it was written, or in other words the intention the people who wrote the law or contract. Is there a word for this?

    I'm not aware of any such word, not least because there are many different ways that the situation you describe could arise. So "loophole", as @Jasper suggests, may work in some situations, but not others. But in a very real and practical way, I suspect that if you asked a lawyer about this situation, they would say that the word for something that goes against the spirit of the law, while still being legal, is "legal"! In other words, they would advise that we don't get distracted by such notions as "spirit" vs "letter". The WHOLE POINT of the law is to turn spirit into letter.

This is known as a loophole.



There is a principle in American jurisprudence that if a law is too vague, it is not valid. Similarly, if a contract allows more than one reasonable interpretation, the party who wrote the contract does not get to decide which interpretation(s) will be used. Instead, the other party gets to choose.

  • Tony Coehlo wrote the Americans With Disabilities Act. He was an epileptic, and he wrote the act to protect epileptics. A few years after the law was passed, a court ruled that epileptics whose condition was controlled by drugs were not protected by the law. He was quoted as saying that he "was written out of [his] own bill." Can anyone find a citation for this quote?
