(6) Where, under the void or avoided juridical act, a right has been acquired by registration in a public register provided by law, and the acquirer in whose benefit the right is entered does not give consent to deletion, the acquired right is deleted solely based on a legal action of rectification.
(7) A court may not award on its own motion the legal consequences of nullity even if it found absolute nullity on its own motion.
