A material mistake refers to a significant error or misunderstanding in a contract or agreement that affects its fundamental terms. This type of mistake can involve incorrect assumptions about facts, laws, or conditions that are essential to the parties' agreement.

What is the difference between a void contract and a voidable contract?
A contract that is void means technically that there never was a contract. There are few times when this remedy is available including if there was a mistake, the contract was entered into under duress, or that the contract was never properly formed. A contract that is 'voidable' is when there has been a misrepresentation or a mistake that allows the innocent party to decide whether the contract will be affirmed, or 'rescinded'. Rescinding a contract has the same effect as if it were void (puts the parties back to where they were as if the contract had never been formed), but the key differences are that it is a choice whether to rescind or affirm and then sue for damages for expectation. Also, rescission is not available in some particular situations: where there are third parties involed, when the contract has already been affirmed, when it is impossible to put the parties back to where they were before the contract was formed, or where the rescission was not done in a reasonable time.
