CONT

Quand un acte est nul «ab initio», c'est qu'il est nul dès sa formation; le jugement le déclarant nul ne fait que déclarer un état de fait antérieur. Au contraire, l'acte annulable était atteint d'un vice, mais n'était pas nul au moment de sa formation; il le devient, lorsque le tribunal prononce l'annulation.
