English

a mental state that does not allow a person to form the intent necessary to do a particular crime but which does not cause the person to be considered insane (=not responsible because of mental illness)

Defence counsel went on to say that his client suffers from a brain injury and has a diminished capacity.

English

a defence used by a person charged with a crime that they were in such a mental state at the time of the offence that they could not form the intent necessary to commit the crime they are charged with
