45 dead letter
«Мёртвая буква» — это словосочетание, обозначающее законы, правила или инструкции, которые ещё формально существуют, но не соблюдаются или не выполняются. Смертная казнь может по праву называться a dead letter в любой стране, т. к. это наказание остаётся в законодательном акте, хотя уже не применяется многие годы. Но этот термин не может относиться к тому, что просто вышло из моды (например, гусиные перья или паровые локомотивы), т. к. их существование не было закреплено ни указом, ни законом.It is still against the law to ride a bicycle on the pavement, but I have never heard of anyone being prosecuted for doing it. I suspect that this is just another example of a law that has become a dead letter. — Езда на велосипеде по тротуару всё ещё является противозаконной, но я никогда не слышал о том, чтобы кто-нибудь был наказан за это. Я подозреваю, что это стало ещё одним примером того, как закон остаётся только на бумаге.
