preterintention: voluntary unlawful conduct which unintentionally carries out a more serious offence.
editI have finished contributing. I want to point out that:
- a) some administrators asked me to remove references to all the countries in the world, and I did so;
- b) other administrators asked me to refer to all the countries in the world, and I will not do so: I am not schizophrenic yet;
- c) the sources are objective and not the result of original research: just indulge them;
- d) the language is correct: there are examples in brackets for the uninitiated;
Any discussion is useless: those who do not know diamonds will always treat them like stones.
Regards.
Post scriptum:
For administrators who doubt the sources given in the article, here are some sources that give the notion in native English:
4) I have respected the universal principle (of Wittgenstein's tractatus) of competence: I am a jurist, with a doctorate and a specialization on unintentional crime, aberratio ictus, aberratio delicti, aberratio cause, etc. In general encyclopedias it is not treated correctly: << ...European civil-law codes place a greater emphasis than do common-law systems on the dangerousness of the actor's conduct and the circumstances surrounding the act. Thus, bodily injury resulting in death and death that is a result of negligence rather than recklessness are more heavily penalized in European than in Anglo-American systems. Whereas in England death resulting from a crime is defined as murder only in the case of a few serious crimes, such as robbery or rape, European codes often punish any killer as a murderer if the culprit has employed a deadly weapon...>> . https://www.britannica.com/topic/homicide
5) THERE IS NOTHING ORIGINAL RESEARCH IN THE ARTICLE: THE SOURCE IS SCRUPULOUSLY INDICATED IN THE NOTE RELATING TO CONSOLIDATED AND BINDING LAWS OR JURISPRUDENCE SENTENCES. WE MUST RESPECT THE PILLARS OF WIKIPEDIA!:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:No_original_research
6) The Wikipedia user needs an encyclopedic article that is correct in content, and the numerous notes in different languages serve to prove that everything is 100% correct;
for simple/incorrect descriptions there are already online resources: https://lawschoolbuddy.info/when-the-resulting-harm-is-greater-than-means-employed-by-the-offender/

Article title
editWhen I accepted this, I moved it to "Preterintention" instead of "Praeterintention", as I believe this is the more common spelling in English contexts. It also corresponds to our wiktionary entry: wikt:preterintentional. -- asilvering (talk) 20:12, 7 September 2024 (UTC)
- Hi. Your latest corrections no longer explain why the attempted misdemeanor is necessary; a lot of work for nothing. By now, it looks more and more like this:https://definition.homes/preterintencion/ This way of working is not my style; greetings. Joseph77237 (talk) 16:10, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
- @Joseph77237, if there are sections you think need to remain in the article, that I removed, can you bring the text here for discussion? -- asilvering (talk) 16:32, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
- but what should I report????: they have completely vandalized it: now, after the intervention of other users/administrators, the entry appears to be grossly wrong: from the beginning; I have no words!!!! But to write a legal entry, don't you need a law degree?, or can anyone write it?: in any case, at the moment it is completely vandalized. I confirm that I have finished contributing to Wikipedia: I respect the principle that to write a legal entry you need to have the educational skills (law degree) to write a law entry. Goodbye.

- ok. But I don't agree: the 5 pillars of Wikipedia should be interpreted through the criteria of official hermeneutics: "literal", "systematic", "teleological", "logical", "rational" etc.: not having any mathematical skills I wouldn't dream of writing/modifying entries of arithmetic or similar.

- Simpliying the article for a general audience is not vandalism. Having a law degree doesn't count for much if you are incapable of writing clearly in English (given that this the English Wikipedia). Lord Bolingbroke (talk) 05:14, 15 September 2024 (UTC)

- ●the cases of unintentional crimes are present in the "living law" of all the states in the world. Some, consistently, honestly apply the model of objective liability; other states, to adapt to the principle "nulla poena sine culpa" require negligence but only presumed! (it is never ascertained in concrete!); and still other states have divided the preterintentional crime into two crimes: malicious injuries in formal conjunction with involuntary homicide (but negligence continues to be presumed!). In fact, the comparative doctrine speaks of masked/hidden objective liability etc., and has coined the term "lying models": it is impossible to expect that the agent can commit a crime with caution (as if it were a boxing match).

- Everything you write only solidifies my opinion that you cannot write clear English prose. Lord Bolingbroke (talk) 09:59, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
- and instead in the article now everything is clear?: it repeats the same things 4 times, mixes preterintent with eventual malice,...then some administrators/users asked me to put only verifiable sources; where is L. Staffler free verifiable? Joseph77237 (talk) 12:06, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
- It is considerably more clear now, yes. For one thing, it states at the outset that the concept pertains mostly to civil law, a rather important thing to note in an article written in English! If you can clarify which parts are "mixing preterintent with eventual malice" (it is also not clear to me what this means), that would help other editors correct any errors of fact. -- asilvering (talk) 12:14, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
- "Other legal systems have limited a defendant's criminal liability to situations where the defendant negligently or recklessly caused the preterintentional harm."
- recklessly = dolus eventualis; Joseph77237 (talk) 15:17, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
- "and conspiracy." what is the connection with the preterintencional ipad? Joseph77237 (talk) 15:21, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
- Art. 584 "preterintentional homicide" is the heading, not the law: it has no relevance for the judge; "expressly foreseen" means a willful crime that produces a more serious and unwanted event (for example unintentional abortion, mistreatment in the family with unwanted death event etc.) Joseph77237 (talk) 15:51, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
- <<In praeterintentional homicide the term "killing" is used and not that of "murder" (as in intentional homicide), in order to underline the agent's unwillingness to kill.>>[
- should have been left: "it would be appropriate to use the term killing..." simply because it is a doctrinal hope that is almost never translated into law by the states Joseph77237 (talk) 15:57, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
- <<Many civil law legal systems have rejected preterintentional offenses and the underlying doctrine of versari in re illicita, as reflecting a strict liability approach incompatible with modern constitutional guarantees.[56] In some countries including Spain,[57] Sweden,[58] and Switzerland, preterintentional crimes have been split into their intentional and unintentional parts, and therefore defendants are charged with a voluntary crime for the intentional act (e.g. grave bodily harm) and an involuntary crime for the resulting unintended harm (e.g. negligent homicide).[59 >>.
- This is a case of concealment of objective responsibility (for the most serious unintended crime): negligence, imprudence etc. requires the violation of a precautionary rule preventing the preterintentional event, which is not ascertained but only presumed. Joseph77237 (talk) 16:09, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
- <<Some legal scholars have argued that cases in which someone commits an preterintentional offence must be regulated, as a legal protection vacuum is unacceptable.[60][61]>>
- very simply: D wants to hit C, but ends up killing C involuntarily; can this event not be regulated? Joseph77237 (talk) 16:14, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
- <<Other countries in which preterintentional crimes were formerly recognized but have been abolished or greatly limited include South Africa[62] and Botswana,[63] both of which rejected the traditional versari principle in the 1960s as embodying a form of strict liability not compatible with modern approaches to criminal law. In South African criminal law, the state of mind necessary for a defendant to be criminally responsible for an unintended consequence of a criminal act is dolus eventualis, which requires both foreseeing the potential for harm and acting in reckless disregard of the consequences.[64] The courts of Zimbabwe and Namibia have similarly adopted a requirement that a defendant foresee the reasonable possibility of the preterintentional harm occurring.[65]>>
- "Dolus eventualis": D accepted the risk that the death event could occur.
- "Homicide beyond intention": D did not foresee the possible death event, nor would he have accepted the risk. Joseph77237 (talk) 16:21, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
- I am confused, because the reference to article 584 of the Codice Penale was added by you in this edit -- correctly , it seems to me. I am unclear as to why you are now objecting to it because the heading is "not the law". If you are now arguing that 584 does not define preterintentional homicide, despite both the heading and the content, then you're going to need to explain why.
- I am also confused by your statement about dolus eventualis. Either preterintentionality is a category that applies to a universal legal problem (whether and under what circumstances we should punish people for criminal outcomes that go beyond their criminal intent), in which case it necessarily encompasses the imposition of criminal liability based on negligence or recklessness toward unintended outcomes, or it applies only to situations in which "D did not foresee the possible death event, nor would he have accepted the risk," in which case the category of preterintentional crime would not apply at all in any of the countries that require a culpable mental state as to the preterintentional harm. If you are saying that all jurisdictions that limit liability for preterintentional crimes to culpable mental states actually impute those mental states based solely on the outcome having occurred (i.e. all such jurisdictions are lying about requiring a culpable mental state), I'm not saying you're wrong, but that kind of sweeping statement would really require gold-plated sourcing.
- I thank you for creating this article on this significant topic. I am sure your arguments above are well-founded but we have to be able to unpack these concepts in ways that the general English-speaking reader can understand. (And speaking of competency -- explaining things in clear and simple terms is, after all, an essential competency not only for Wikipedians but also for lawyers and legal scholars, since a law that is inaccessible to the people cannot be the law.) Overall, it seems to me that the optimal approach here would be to retain a broad scope for the article, but also include more discussion about the boundaries of preterintentionality, how it relates to other concepts like indirect intent, and how different scholars have defined it. (If there is one thing that lawyers have in common across all legal systems it's that we never stop arguing about what words mean, and IMO adequately reflecting that fact and the concomitant fuzziness of nearly all legal concepts is a recurrent challenge for Wikipedia's coverage of legal topics.) -- Visviva (talk) 21:37, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
- The rubric (which in Latin means "written in red ink") of a provision is the short title that precedes it and summarizes its content. It has no legal value, nor is it relevant for exegetical purposes (CEDU, Charter of Nice, etc.): "Rubrica legis non est lex"

Is the image necessary?
editIs it appropriate to include File:Emperor Hadrian on the Lex Cornelia and unintentional killing.jpg in the article? It's in Latin, for one thing, which we shouldn't assume our readers will understand. What's more, the term preterintention or praeter intentionem doesn't even appear in the selected text. He's talking about a similar concept, from what I can make out with my rusty Latin, but is it really appropriate to use it as an example of preterintention when no variant of that term is used? If we do decide to include that quote, I think it would make more sense to transcribe it into a {{quote box}} template, rather than having screenshot of a book.
