2. Void contract - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Void_contract

   Practically, a contract can be declared to be void by a court of law. [1] An agreement to carry out an illegal act is an example of a void agreement. For example, an agreement between drug dealers and buyers is a void agreement simply because the terms of the contract are illegal. In such a case, neither party can go to court to enforce the ...

3. Annulment - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annulment

   Lack of any of these conditions makes a marriage invalid and constitutes legal grounds for a declaration of nullity. Accordingly, apart from the question of diriment impediments dealt with below, there is a fourfold classification of contractual defects: defect of form, defect of contract, defect of willingness, defect of capacity.

4. Declaration of nullity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declaration_of_Nullity

   A "Declaration of Nullity" is not the dissolution of an existing marriage (as is a dispensation from a marriage ratum sed non consummatum and an "annulment" in civil law), but rather a determination that consent was never validly exchanged due to a failure to meet the requirements to enter validly into matrimony and thus a marriage never existed.

5. Forum selection clause - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forum_selection_clause

   In contract law, a forum selection clause (sometimes called a dispute resolution clause, choice of court clause, governing law clause, jurisdiction clause or an arbitration clause, depending on its form) in a contract with a conflict of laws element allows the parties to agree that any disputes relating to that contract will be resolved in a specific forum.

6. Void (law) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Void_(law)

   Black's Law Dictionary defines 'void' as "[n]ull; ineffectual; nugatory; having no legal force or binding effect...." [1] In the case of a contract, this means there is no legal obligation, therefore there can be no breach of contract since the contract is null, but there may be an implied contract which requires the recipient of goods or services provided to pay their reasonable value.

7. Declaration (law) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declaration_(law)

   In the canon law of the Catholic Church, a declaration of nullity, (commonly called an annulment and less commonly a decree of nullity) [1] is authoritative judgment on the part of an ecclesiastical tribunal juridically establishing the fact that a marriage was invalidly contracted or, less frequently, a judgment juridically establishing the fact that an ordination was invalidly conferred.

8. Mistake (contract law) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mistake_(contract_law)

   Mistake of law is when a party enters into a contract without the knowledge of the law in the country. The contract is affected by such mistakes, but it is not void. The reason here is that ignorance of law is not an excuse. However, if a party is induced to enter into a contract by the mistake of law then such a contract is not valid. [3]

9. Breach of contract - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breach_of_contract

   Breach of contract is a legal cause of action and a type of civil wrong, in which a binding agreement or bargained-for exchange is not honored by one or more of the parties to the contract by non-performance or interference with the other party's performance. Breach occurs when a party to a contract fails to fulfill its obligation(s), whether ...
