A legal offence is a punishable offence, while a moral offence is not a punishable offence.
- Every country is governed by a Law. Any offence contradicting or breaking the law is referred to as a legal offence.
- For example - Assault and battery, burglary, violence etc.
- Morals are the principles of every individual. They help in distinguishing between right and wrong. Thus, the offences discriminating the morals are referred to as moral offences.
- For example - Discourtesy, Haughtiness, Rude behaviour, Bad manners etc.
