Absolute Nullity

Under the Turkish Code of Obligations, absolute nullity means that contracts contrary to the mandatory provisions of the law, to morality, to public order or to personal rights, or whose subject matter is impossible, are of no effect. The nullity of some of the provisions contained in a contract does not affect the validity of the others. However, where it is clear that the contract would not have been concluded without those provisions, the whole contract is absolutely null.
