Widerrufene

Widerrufene is the past participle of the German verb widerrufen (to revoke, withdraw) used as an adjective. It denotes something that has been revoked or withdrawn. In everyday and formal language it is not a fixed technical term by itself, but a descriptor that can apply to decisions, permissions, contracts and other actions. Common collocations include widerrufene Verträge (contracts that have been revoked), widerrufene Genehmigungen (permits withdrawn) and widerrufene Erklärungen (statements withdrawn).

In legal and administrative contexts, the concept indicates that the validity or legal effect of a subject matter has ended. A revocation can render a contract void, invalidate a permit, or nullify an official declaration. The revocation may be initiated by an issuing authority, an original party to an agreement, or as provided by statutory or contractual terms. Procedures surrounding revocation—such as notices, time limits and possible remedies—depend on the applicable jurisdiction and legal framework.

Widerrufene objects or statuses are contrasted with ongoing or valid ones. The term emphasizes the result of revocation rather than the act itself; the act is described by widerrufen, while widerrufene describes the end state. Related concepts include Aufhebung (cancellation) and Rücknahme (withdrawal in a broader sense). In German-language legal writing, widerrufene is most often encountered as a descriptive label in reference to revoked rights, documents, or decisions.
