"Skirt the rules" nghĩa là gì?

"Skirt the rules" có "skirt" là đi quanh = đi vòng qua các luật lệ -> cụm từ này nghĩa là lách luật.

Ví dụ
After the City of Chicago shut down five restaurants this weekend for breaking its rules for Phase 4 of reopening, a restaurant owner said Tuesday they only skirted the rules because they are hemorrhaging (xuất huyết, ở đây có nghĩa là thiếu tiền) money and need help.

“The Trump Administration should stop tampering with (can thiệp) California’s waters. BLM’s latest attempt to unlawfully raise the Shasta Dam is a poorly-cloaked (che đậy kém) move to evade the Clean Water Act,” said Attorney General Becerra. “As long as Trump officials keep trying to skirt the rules, we’ll keep them honest.”

This would guarantee that all changes and updates to the property have been approved by the Architectural Review Committee before a person buys a home. There would be no surprises for the new owner, and I think it may cut down on people willing to skirt the rules and hoping they do not get caught. This would leave the trolls to handle the gnomes (trùm tài chính) and reduce the complaints.
