Mala in Se

https//legaldictionary.net/mala-in-se/

The Latin term mala in se translates to mean “wrong in itself,” or “evil in itself.” In the legal system, mala in se refers to acts that are inherently wrong, or an act that is wrong in and of itself. This is in contrast to mala prohibita, which is an act that is wrong because it is prohibited by law. To explore this concept, consider the following mala in se definition.
Definition of Mala in Se

Pronounced: mala in say

Plural. Singular form: malum in se

Noun

An act or offense that is evil or wrong by its own nature, regardless of law or statute.

By comparison, malum prohibitum means the act is wrong because it is prohibited – or it is wrong because there is a law or regulation prohibiting it. For example, in the U.S., drivers are required to have a valid drivers’ license. Driving without a valid license is not wrong because it is inherently evil, but because it is prohibited by law.
