Mistakes of Law
1. Ignorance of the Law (Ignorantia Legis)
- A person is not excused for a crime committed because they did not know the law.
- Exception: In some cases, mistake of law may be a defense if the law is complex or obscure and the person made a reasonable effort to ascertain it.
2. Mistake of Fact (Error Facti)
- A person's belief that a particular fact exists or does not exist, which, if true, would negate a crime.
- Can be a defense if the mistake was reasonable and rendered the conduct innocent.
- Example: Mistaken identity of the victim.
3. Mistake of Law Excluding Intent (Ignorantia Facti Excusat)
- A mistake that negates the specific intent required for a crime.
- Example: A defendant who mistakenly believes that their actions were legally justified.

- A mistake that negates the culpability (degree of fault) required for a crime.
- Example: A defendant who mistakenly believes that their conduct is not reckless or negligent.
