Tips: Void has several meanings and uses, but in some sense, they all pertain to emptiness or pointlessness. If something is void, it is empty, invalid, or pointless. It is the same as if it had never existed. A common legal phrase is "null and void," which means that something (such as a contract) has been deemed invalid or pointless.
