EXCEPTION, legislation, construction.

Appeal of an order or decision of a court of first instance.

Under the rules in federal and most state courts, the need to invoke an exception to the evidence or a decision to uphold the rights of appeal has been removed in favor of an appeal. late 14th century, from the Anglo-French excepcioun, Old French excepcion, from the Latin exceptionem (nominative exceptio) “an exception, limitation, limitation; an objection”, the name of the action of the stem participle excipere “remove” (see exception). The exception that proves the rule is taken from the law: exceptio probat regulam in casibus non exceptis, “the exception proves the rule in cases that are not exempted”; The exception here is “the act of exempting someone or something from the rule in question,” not the person or thing that is exempted. The figure of style in the exception is that of the excipere, which is used in Roman law, as a modern jurist would say the objection.
