From 212 U.S. 542 - Toy Toy v. C B Hopkins · 1909Most cited · 133 citing opinions

It is rarely that things are wholly void and without force and effect as to all persons and for all purposes, and incapable of being made otherwise. Things are voidable which are valid and effectual until they are avoided by some act; while things are often said to be void which are without validity until confirmed.
