good soldier defense

good-soldier defense. An excuse theory based on the assertion that a defendant was following orders, esp. of a military or corporate superior. • The term is a derisive label rather than a valid defense. Following an order does not relieve a defendant of responsibility for wrongful acts unless there are circumstances that would amount to coercion.
