Another case concerning Rule 1:13, State Highway Comm`r v. Easley, 215 Va. 197, 207 P.E.2d 870 (1974), also conforms to our treatment of non-compliance with the rule as a matter of miscarriage of justice rather than jurisdiction. In Easley, we held that a challenge to compliance with Rule 1:13 could only be raised by the party whose rights were infringed by such an alleged omission. Id. at 202, 207 P.E.2d at 874. However, as mentioned above, an order that is void from the outset can be challenged « by any person, anywhere, at any time or in any manner. » Barnes, 144 Va. at 705, 130 P.E. at 906. In that case, where a case is declared applicable from the outset by the court, the decision of the court shall be deemed to be applicable from the date of adoption of the act and not from the date of entry into force of the decision or decision. The difference between an action brought by the court that is void from the outset and not merely countervailable is that the former involves the underlying power of a court to act on a case, while the latter concerns acts of a court that are erroneous. An order is void from the outset if it is made by a court without jurisdiction of the subject matter or through the parties, if the nature of the order is such that the court did not have the power to issue it, or if the procedure used by the court was a procedure that the court « could not legally accept ».
Evans v. Smyth-Wythe Airport Comm`n, 255 Va. 69, 73, 495 pp.e.2d 825, 828 (1998)(cited Anthony v. Kasey, 83 va. 338, 340, 5 p.E. 176, 177 (1887)).2 The lack of jurisdiction to make an order in any of these circumstances renders the order completely void and can be charged « directly or incidentally by any person, anywhere, at any time or in any manner. » Barnes v. Am. Fertilizer Co., 144 va. 692, 705, 130 pp.
902, 906 (1925). Therefore, Rule 1:1, which limits the jurisdiction of a court to twenty-one days after receipt of the final decision, does not apply to a decision that is void from the outset. Ab Initio Meaning and origin Ab Initio is a legal expression of Latin origin. Ab means « of » and Initio means « beginning or beginning » and therefore the term literally means from the beginning. Explanation If a case is declared decided by the court as decided from the outset, the court`s decision in that case is deemed to be.

The main issue to be decided in this appeal is whether the seizure and bail were void from the outset or only countervailable. It is apparent from the pleadings, the findings, the judgment and the entire minutes that the Court of First Instance did not have jurisdiction to issue the seizure and that it was therefore unauthorised and absolutely null and void.
In Henry Ah Hoc & Another vs. The State and the other was concluded that « No prospectively means null and void ab initio means null from the beginning, or in other words, no retrospective, the word null as used in Article 254(1) of the Constitution. A, a minor enters into an agreement with B for the purchase of a particular property. B transfers ownership on its behalf, but A does not make the payment. B cannot sue A for non-payment because the agreement is void from the outset. The trial court ruled in favour of Mooney and ruled that « reasonable notice of the time and place of submission of these drafts » of Mooney`s lawyer`s final order had not been properly given, as required by Rule 1:13. The Court of First Instance set aside the order of 23 October 1998 « at its discretion » « from the outset » and granted Mooney`s application for annulment of the order. The Court of First Instance also granted Mooney`s request for non-appeal and dismissed the original appeal without prejudice. We appealed to Singh. 2.
A judgment obtained by extrinsic or collateral fraud is also void from the outset. Rook v. Rook, 233 Va. 92, 95, 353 S.E.2d 756, 758 (1987). In this case, we determine whether an order made in violation of Rule 1:13 is void from the outset or simply countervailable. If the argument is valid, it prevents the execution of the will, because the court considers that the will is non-existent. As such, the estate of the deceased is distributed in accordance with the provisions of the previous will or the statutes of the State in matters of intestate. Similarly, a contract may be declared null and void from the outset due to unfair transactions or lack of scruples, which will result in the nullity of the contract. Defendants may also use nullity ab initio, so that a court does not award damages or enforce enforcement against them. In Radhe Shyam Gupta v. UP State Agro Industrial Corporation[2], it was found that if an order is rescinded at the outset, it implies that the order never existed. Clearly, in this case, both the appeal and the affidavits of seizure revealed that a seizure should be lawfully issued.
In this case, a clear distinction was made between a case in which the seizure was merely questionable and a case in which it is absolutely void because it is imposed against the law. The court concluded that, in the context of a precautionary measure concerning security, guarantors are precluded from arguing that the seizure is merely countervailable. On the contrary, it is concluded that the guarantors are not prevented from pleading and proving that the seizure is void from the outset. The first programme in the present case correctly states that a contract void from the outset is a contract which was invalid from the outset. « Ab initio » means « from the beginning » in Latin and is used to describe contracts that were legally unenforceable from the moment they were created. Contracts are void if there are one or more damaging factors, as we discuss in detail here.
