Annulment
This legal decree invalidates a marriage by declaring it null and void, essentially treating the marriage as if it never took place. An annulment is used, for example, when it can be shown that one of the parties lacked the capacity to consent to the marriage (e.g., a legal minor). A legal annulment is different from a religious annulment.
