Properly ,

In a figurative sense ,
and in law ,
it means that which has no more effect than if it did not exist ,
and also the defect which prevents it from having such effect .
That which is absolutely void .
2 .
It is a yule of law that what is absolutely null produces no effects whatever ;
as ,
if a man bad a wife in full life ,
and both aware of the fact ,
he married another woman ,
such second marriage would be nun and without any legal effect .

Nullities have been divided into absolute and relative .
Absolute nullities are those which may be insisted upon by any one having an interest in rendering the act ,
deed or writing null ,
even by the public authorities ,
as a second marriage while the former was in full force .
Everything fraudulent is null and void .
Relative nullities can be invoked only by those in whose favor the law has been established ,
land ,
in fact ,
such power is less a nullity of the act than a faculty which one or more persons have to oppose the validity of the act .
4 .

1 .
Defect of form ;
as ,
for example ,
when the law requires that a will of land shall be attested by three witnesses ,
and it is on ]
attested by two .
