单词 Mental infirmity
释义 精神欠妥
A mental condition which may arise from disease or age which makes a person incapable of managing his or her own affairs: HKSAR v Leung Wai Chung [1999] 2 HKC 471 (CA). A common instance is senile dementia caused by age (arteriosclerotic degeneration) or in the case of a person who suffers a stroke, the mental infirmity is caused by disease. A person suffering from mental infirmity such as senile dementia does not make that person a ‘mentally ill’ person. Mental infirmity of the defendant may be taken into account as going to the gravity of provocation as applied to the defendant: Luc Thiet Thuan v The Queen [1996] 1 HKC 663 (PC). See also Dementia; Disability; Mental illness; Mental instability.
可因疾病或年齡引起的精神狀態,它致令某人無能夠管理自己的事情:HKSAR v Leung Wai Chung [1999] 2 HKC 471 (上訴法院)。普遍的例子為因年齡引起的老年癡呆症(動脈硬化性衰退),或在中風的情形下,精神欠妥則是因為疾病引起的。因患老年癡呆症而精神欠妥的人,並非患有精神病。被告人精神欠妥可作為適用於被告人的激怒罪其嚴重程度的考慮因素:Luc Thiet Thuan v The Queen [1996] 1 HKC 663 (樞密院)。另見 Dementia; Disability; Mental illness; Mental instability。
