Voidable
In law, a transaction or action which is voidable is valid, but may be annulled by one of the parties to the transaction. Voidable is usually used in distinction to
void ab initio (or void from the outset) and
unenforceable.The act of invalidating the contract by the party exercising its rights to anul the voidable contract is usually referred to either as voiding the
contract (in the United States and Canada) or avoiding the contract (in the United Kingdom, Australia and other
common law countries).Generally speaking, one party will have the right to elect whether to annul the transaction or to affirm it. The avoiding of a voidable transaction amounts to the rescinding it, or exercising a power of rescission, and as such is subject to the general law in that regard.
