Právní koncept, který nahlíží obžalovaného jako trestně neodpovědného, pokud mohlo být jednání dané osoby ovlivněno duševní poruchou, pokud byla duševní nemocí ovlivněna schopnost rozeznat povahu a důsledek jednání nebo v případě, že je patrné, že obviněný nevěděl, že to, co se stalo, bylo špatně.

A legal concept that an accused is not criminally responsible if, at the time of committing the act, the person was laboring under such a defect of reason from disease of the mind as not to know the nature and quality of the act done or if the act was known, to not have known that what was done was wrong.
