A more thorough explanation: In legal terms, an exception refers to a situation or circumstance that does not fall within the general rule or provision of a law or legal principle. It is an instance where a specific case is excluded from the usual application of a rule due to unique circumstances or conditions.
Example: The defendant argued that he should be granted an exception to the mandatory minimum sentence due to his extraordinary circumstances.
