| 单词 | Decree of nullity |
| 释义 | 無效判令 An order made by the court declaring a marriage null and void. The court will only make a decree of nullity in respect of a marriage which takes place after 30 June 1972 where there are grounds for decree of nullity as set out in the Matrimonial Causes Ordinance (Cap 179) s 20. A decree of nullity can either declare a marriage void or voidable. Grounds for decree of nullity for void and voidable marriages are set out in the Matrimonial Causes Ordinance (Cap 179) s 20(1) and (2) respectively. For marriages contracted before 30 June 1972, the grounds for decree of nullity are set out in the repealed s 20. Where a decree of nullity is granted on the ground that a marriage is voidable, its effect shall not be retrospective and shall only operate in the time after the decree has been made: Matrimonial Causes Ordinance (Cap 179) s 20B. A decree of nullity cannot be made absolute unless the court is satisfied that, where children are involved, arrangements have been made to protect the welfare of the child: Matrimonial Proceedings and Property Ordinance (Cap 192) s 18. See also Bigamy; Property settlement; Spousal maintenance; Void marriage; Voidable marriage. 宣布某婚姻無效的法令。法院只會就1972年6月30日之後締結的婚姻作出無效判令，而無效判令的理由則列明於《婚姻訴訟條例》（第179章） 第20條。無效判令可宣布某婚姻無效或可使無效。宣布無效或可使無效婚姻的無效判令之理由分別列明於《婚姻訴訟條例》（第179章） 第20 (1) 條與第20 (2) 條。凡屬1972年6月30日之前締結的婚姻，有關的無效判令理由列明於已廢除的第20條。如基於婚姻為可使無效的理由批出無效判令，則有關的無效判令沒有追溯效力，並只會在批出判令後才有執行的效力：《婚姻訴訟條例》（第179章）第20B條。除非法院信納，在涉及子女的案件，已作出保障有關子女福利的安排，否則暫准判令不可轉為絕對判令：《婚姻法律程序與財產條例》（第192章）第18條。另見 Bigamy; Property settlement; Spousal maintenance; Void marriage; Voidable marriage。 |
