Definition: Maladministration refers to poor management or regulation, especially in an official capacity. It can also be referred to as misadministration.

Examples:

  • A government agency that fails to properly oversee the safety of a product, resulting in harm to consumers, is an example of maladministration.
  • A school district that mismanages its budget, leading to teacher layoffs and overcrowded classrooms, is an example of maladministration.
