Legal Journey

"Void," "voidable," "void ab initio," and "a contract that becomes void" get used interchangeably in conversation, but they are used to describe different legal situations, with important differences in their consequences. Confusing them can change the outcome of a case: Whether a party can sue for damages, Whether money already paid has to be returned, and Whether either side had any rights at all to begin with.

“Sole Basis of Conviction” basically describes a case in which the court convicts primarily, or entirely, on one evidentiary source, WITHOUT insisting on independent corroboration of the same. However, this does NOT mean that every piece of admissible evidence is automatically enough. A single witness statement, a single confession, or a single forensic report is usually NOT enough to unlock a conviction merely because nothing else is required by law.
