It stands opposed to rogation; and is distinguished from derogation, which implies the taking away of only some part of a law; from Subrogation, which denotes the substitution of a clause; from dispensation, which only sets it aside in a particular instance; and from antiquation, which is the refusing to pass a law. For example, the abrogation of the Eighteenth Amendment to the Constitution, which prohibited the manufacture or sale of intoxicating liquors, was accomplished by the enactment of the Twenty-First Amendment. Implied abrogation takes place when a new law contains provisions that are positively contrary to a former law, without expressly abrogating such laws, or when the order of things for which the law has been made no longer exists. ABROGATION, in the civil law, legislation. The destruction or annulling of aformer law, by an act of the legislative power, or by usage. A law may beabrogated or only derogated from; it is abrogated when it is totallyannulled; it is derogated from when only a part is abrogated: derogaturlegi, cum pars detrahitur; abrogatur legi, cum prorsus tollitur. Dig lib..50, t. 17, 1, 102. Lex rogatur dum fertur; abrogatur dum tollitur; derogatureidem dum quoddam ejus caput aboletuer; subrogatur dum aliquid ei adjicitur;abrogatur denique, quoties aliquid in ea mutatur. Dupin, Proleg. Juris, Art.iv. 2. Abrogation is express or implied; it is express when it, isliterally pronounced by the new law, either in general terms, as when afinal clause abrogates or repeals all laws contrary to the provisions of thenew one, or in particular terms, as when it abrogates certain preceding lawswhich are named. 3. Abrogation is implied when the new law contains provisions which arepositively, contrary to the former laws, without expressly abrogating suchlaws: for it is a posteriora derogant prioribus. 3 N. S. 190; 10 M. R. 172.560. It is also implied when the order of things for which the law had beenmade no longer exists, and hence the motives which had caused its enactmenthave ceased to operate; ratione legis omnino cessante cessat lex.
