The doctrine of implied repeal is a concept in constitutional theory which states that where an Act of Parliament or an Act of Congress conflicts with an earlier one, the later Act takes precedence and the conflicting parts of the earlier Act are repealed i.e., no longer law . This doctrine is expressed in the Latin phrase leges posteriores priores contrarias abrogant . ref http www.seangabb.co.uk flcomm flc063.htm Free Life Commentary No 63 Bot generated title ref Constitutional statutes In the U.K. case of Thoburn v Sunderland City Council the so called Metric Martyrs case , Lord Justice Laws ruled that some constitutionally significant statutes held a higher status in UK law and were not subject to the doctrine of implied repeal and would therefore require Parliament to expressly repeal the Act. The case specifically dealt with s.2 2 of the European Communities Act 1972 UK European Communities Act , but in his judgment, Lord Justice Laws also named the Parliament Acts 1911 and 1949 Parliament Act and the Human Rights Act 1998 Human Rights Act as other constitutional statutes and therefore not subject to the doctrine. Constitutional statutes can still be expressly repealed if Parliament wishes, but unless the words doing so are totally unambiguous, the courts will follow the precedent established in Thoburn . Express repeal is carried out by judges in the same method as above, however, Parliament or Congress expressly orders judges to allow a statute to prevail over a previous statute.
