Void Contracts

A void contract is an agreement that has no legal effect from the start, meaning it cannot be enforced by either party. In the context of joint and several contracts, if one party fails to fulfill their obligations, the other parties may be held responsible for the entire contract. However, if the contract is void, none of the parties can enforce it, and they aren't liable for any obligations. Essentially, a void contract creates no legal rights or responsibilities for anyone involved, leaving all parties free from compliance or penalties.
