"KNEEL before MAXIMS-of-law!". . .
Regula pro lege, si deficit lex: If the law is inadequate, the maxim serves in its place.
(this one seems somewhat convoluted). . .
Rei turpis nullum mandatum est: There is no mandate for a thing immoral (or illegal). - Hence, there is no action for failing to act on such a mandate.
