void
having no legal effect. In the law of contract, certain agreements may be treated as void, and if so they are treated as void ab ini-tio, or 'from their inception' – i.e. they cannot ever have created legal consequences. Examples are sponsiones ludicrae, some, but not all, contracts entered into under error or mistake. The unfair contract terms Act 1977 renders certain terms in contracts void, an example being one that tries to exclude liability for a breach of duty arising in the course of a business that causes death or personal injury.
