If I understand right, this is what you want to do:

Somewhere deep inside the "main" function, an exception is thrown. In the
exception handler, if some condition is true, you want to say, "no, no,
don't worry about the exception. please continue execution of main from the
line after the exception".

I don't think this can be done in python.

You'll need to restructure your code instead.
