Connivance in United States
Connivance Definition
An agreement or consent, indirectly given, that something unlawful shall be done by another. A married party’s corrupt consenting to evil conduct, of which afterwards he complains. 2 Bish. Mar. & Div. § 203. Connivance differs from condonation, though the same legal consequences may attend it. Connivance necessarily involves criminality on the part of the individual who connives; condonation may take place without imputing the slightest blame to the party who forgives the injury. Connivance must be the act of the ioimd before the offense has been committed; condonation is the result of a determination to forgive an injury which was not knovni until after it was inflicted. 3 Hagg. Ecc. 350. An error of judgment not involving a willingness to have the delinquency committed is not connivance. 10 Jur. 829. Nor is a watching of the guilty parties, without interference. 109 Mass. 408.
