annullable
Can be invalidated
Annullable describes something that can be declared void or invalid.
The term appears most often in legal contexts—an annullable marriage, an annullable contract, an annullable election.
Unlike void agreements, which have no legal force from the start, annullable ones remain valid until formally cancelled: The court found the agreement annullable due to fraud.
