It is a contract to committ an illegal or immoral act. It is not enforceable in Contract Law. For example you couldn't enforce payment of rent if you let a flat for the of prostitution or consumption of illegal drugs.

An otherwise lawful contract can be tainted with illegality, for example a contact of employment wasn't enforceable where the parties had agreed to payment in a way that avoided liability for tax. Although this is not as strictly applied as it once was, especially if the inequality of power would make it unfair not to enforce the contract.
