Answer:

If a court decides that something — a law, an appointment, and an action — is unconstitutional, they are — on the face of it — saying it is a legal nothing. Sometimes that is reasonably straightforward. Eight sections of the Security Laws (Amendment) Act, 2014, were declared unconstitutional early in 2015. The new rules had not been applied, so no complications were caused by ruling that they had no legal effect.
