Mala fide

“Mala fide” is a Latin term that means “in bad faith” in English. It is generally used in legal contexts to describe actions or behavior that are carried out with dishonest or malicious intent. When someone acts mala fide, it means they are intentionally engaging in deceptive or fraudulent behavior, often to the detriment of others. In the field of law, the concept of mala fide is crucial in determining whether a party’s actions were legally acceptable or whether they were involved in wrongful or unethical behavior.
