In civil law, obrogation (Latin: obrogat[1] from obrogare[2]) is the modification or repeal of a law in whole or in part by issuing a new law.[3][4][5]
In canon law, of the Catholic Church, obrogation is the enacting of a contrary law that is a revocation of a previous law;[6] it may also be the partial cancellation or amendment of a law, decree, or legal regulation by the imposition of a newer one.
