GORIGOITIA ABBOTT, FELIPE. IRREGULARITY, INVALIDITY AND INEFFECTIVENESS IN THE CONTEXT OF PROCEDURAL NULLITY. RDUCN [online]. 2013, vol.20, n.1, pp.129-154. ISSN 0718-9753.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0718-97532013000100006.

This article aims to propose some conceptual bases that are useful to understand the nullity in a civil proceeding. To this effect, three concepts are distinguished and analyzed: irregularity, invalidity and ineffectiveness, that describe the defective way of a procedural act, since it is determined that it does not correspond with the prototype model granted by the legal system until it becomes ineffective. The nullity is understood as a technique used to render ineffective acts issued by the court, usually but not exclusively, due to its invalidity and it should be used only in case of the non working ratification or correction of the defective procedural act.

Palabras clave : procedural nullity; invalidity; irregularity; inefficiency; rejection.
