nulos de pleno derecho

English translation: fully null and void

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Spanish term or phrase:nulo(s) de pleno derecho
English translation:fully null and void

Spanish term or phrase: nulos de pleno derecho
"Serán nulos de pleno derecho todos los actos que se efectúen en contravención a lo dispuesto en la presente autorización."

This is a clause within an environmental legal document from Mexico. I know what it means, but I guess my brain is lacking creativity at this time (after looking at this document all night).

Normally I would use null/void, but neither seems to work in combination with the remainder of the phrase. My best guess is "denied full rights" or something similar.

Any ideas?
