A void case could be when a contract is deemed void because it was entered into under duress or coercion, making it legally unenforceable.

A void case is a legal case that is determined to be invalid from the beginning. This can happen for a number of reasons, such as:
- The case is based on a law that has been repealed or declared unconstitutional. - The case was filed in the wrong court. - The plaintiff does not have standing to sue. - The plaintiff's claim is frivolous or malicious.
Void cases are often dismissed by the court without a trial. In some cases, the court may also award attorney's fees to the defendant to compensate for the time and expense of defending the case.
Here are some examples of void cases:
- A case filed against a government agency that is immune from suit. - A case filed by a plaintiff who is not a resident of the state where the case is filed. - A case filed by a plaintiff who is not the real party in interest. - A case filed by a plaintiff who is seeking to enforce an illegal contract.
Void cases are often seen as a waste of time and resources. However, they can sometimes be used to challenge unjust laws or to vindicate the rights of individuals who have been wronged.
