You thought you’ve found your perfect match. You thought your marriage is bound to last forever, or, at the very least, until the last breath. You’ve thought wrong, you say, and you now think of seeking legal remedy to end your marriage. Here are “steps” or suggestions in deciding whether to step out of the ring or not (for the court procedure, see Procedure in Annulment of Marriage and Declaration of Nullity of Marriage):
1. Make sure it is the last resort. As stated in a previous post, love and marriage are supposed to be forever. Try all options, like counseling, to make it work. If there’s no progress, weigh your options. On the other side of the scale is the reality that getting into another relationship or marriage, while the first marital bond is still existing, is a sure way of courting criminal liability (adultery, concubinage, bigamy). A subsequent petition for declaration of nullity/annulment of marriage is not a defense in the criminal action.
2. Realize that it will cost you. Getting out of marriage is sometimes more expensive than getting into one. Expenses include the fees for your lawyer or counsel, filing fees, professional fees for the psychiatrist or psychologist (if the ground is psychological incapacity), etc.
3. Discuss the custody of children, visitation rights, property arrangements and support. Custody over children and separation of properties in annulment are among the most bitter issues in annulment. As much as possible, discuss and agree on these matters beforehand.
4. Make sure to invoke a valid ground. Marriage is an inviolable social institution and any doubt is resolved in its favor. Hence, make sure there’s sufficient basis to go through the procedure discussed below.
5. Prescriptive period. Make sure that the petition is filed within the time provided under the law. There are separate rules for counting of the prescriptive period for each ground. [See Prescriptive Periods for Annulment of Marriage]
The procedure is provided under the Rules on Declaration of Absolute Nullity of Void Marriages and Annulment of Voidable Marriages. [See Procedure in Annulment of Marriage and Declaration of Nullity of Marriage]
Just a little clarification on the role of the State. The certification from the prosecutor that there is no collusion between the parties is different from the certification from the Solicitor-General opposing or agreeing with the petition. The former is still the prevailing requirement while the latter has already been dispensed with.

For your Singapore problem you have to ask a singaporean lawyer.
Ang haba ng kwento mo, walang pakialam ang court sa mga kewntong pamilya, If you can produce a certificate of no marriage from PSA (NSO) then you are free to marry whoever you want.

Inabandona po kami ng mga anak ko at ngayon po ay may kanya kanya ng buhay. Ako po ay may kinakasama ng iba at ganun din po sya ngunit wala pong suportang natatanggap ang mga anak ko mga limang taon na po. 13yrs old at 11yrs old po ang mga anak ko. Salamat po
Hi Matet. For those 18-21 who got married without parental consent, the action must be brought within 5 years from the the time the person reached 21. Please see this post: https://pnl-law.com/blog/prescription-of-actions-for-annulment-in-the-philippines-and-who-may-file-action/
Good luck.
Hi Attorney, Paano po mag file ng declaration of nullity of marriage? Nagpa kasal po ako noong March 1994 pero may tunay siyang asawa dahil buntis na ako at kahihiyan sa magulang ko napilitan ako magpakasal kahit alam Kong kasal siya. Ngunit after July 1994 bigla na lng cia nawala at na balitaan ko na bumalik cia sa asawa nya. From that date Hindi ko na cia nakita at Hindi ko na din cia ginambala pa. Paano ko kaya mapapawalan ng bisa ang aking kasal? Hindi po ako nag change ng status kahit kailan ta kahit saan po na mga id ko at persona docs ang ginagamit ko ay apelyido ko sa pagka dalaga. Wala naman ako balak sa kahit anong sustento dahil npatapos ko na po ang anak ko. Please attorney I need your help. Wala akong sapat na pera para sa annulment dahil sa pagkaka alam ko npka laking pera ang kailangan. Sana po sagutin nyo ang aking liham. Madaming salamat.
God bless and More Power.

you have to get an attorney to annul the marriage. hindi po yan nakukuha sa papepeles lang
null and void yun marriage nyo in the first place kasi kasal na sya bago kayo ikasal. consult a lawyer para mas maliwanagan ka.
True. It doesn’t need a Judicial Decision since it is null and void from the very beginning if his prior marriage is valid.
Panu ko po malalaman kung annulled at wala ng bisa ang kasal ng asawa ko??? Plsss plss plss po I need ur help

Hindi siya pwedeng pakasal kasi married pa siya sa legal term. Mag file siya ng annulment, it will take at least 3 years
hindi naman 3 years. in 6 months tapos n ung annullment nmin ng ex husband ko..
punta siya sa PSA (NSO) at kumuha ng NO Marriage Certificate.
ask him to get a Certificate of marriage from PSA/NSO

I have a question, is the marriage void if the wife use other name and the husband knew it after 3 years the have been married. The wife already married before using her real name and they get married 3 years ago in kasalang bayan. Since kasalang bayan didn’t have any requirements they got married. But now, the husband want to get a paper that their marriage is void, what will the husband has to do with it?

Everything’s clear enough. Tnx!
I would like to inquire about the role the state regarding filing a bigamy case. Can anyone file the charges if somebody they know commited the crime? A family member of the spouse or friend?
to all the attorneys,
i would like to know if the same name but different spelling is still valid especially when it comes to legal matters? i am very confused…pls help me. thank you
To all attorneys i need your help. My petioner from the us send a petition approval here in the philippines which qualifies me to get an interview. but i found out that he is still married here in the philippines but they have no communication for more than 15 years after that church wedding. And the girl re-marry again in 2006 without papers of annulment or void? How could it be possible? And its also a church wedding? She just said because the first marriage with my petioner is invalid because of the typographical errors of the legal papers. Is it possible?
your birth certificate is the proof of your official and legal name, all other name are just aliases.
k_pm, your question was already answered somewhere in this site.
eiru03, it really depends on what particular legal transaction you’re referring to. Correction of a mispelled name is now relatively easy. Please check this article. Good luck.
I would like to know the difference between Legal Separation and Annulment. Is it the same thing?
Liv, there’s another post on that here. Please try the search function at the right sidebar (specially for future questions). In the meantime, let me make your search easier – click here to go to that article.
Considering you know all the answers, would you please briefly give me an estimate of how long it will take and how much it will cost to get an annulment these days? I tried reading everything I can find but it’s too much of an eyesore. I hope you don’t mind giving a quick reply.
If you need to know the grounds and complication of the matter, to be able to do an estimate, please read on;
I got married in January 1996, I left Manila 3 days later and haven’t been back since. The person I married have been living with someone else for years now and they also have, last I heard, 5 kids. I think they don’t even make enough to live, so as much as they’d like to do so, applying for an annulment is not possible in their part. I would like to do them a favour by filing an annulment myself but am not sure if I want to shoulder the cost considering I haven’t got a need as I haven’t got plans to remarry nor do I want to go thru so much trouble again. I do not wish to be with this person nor do I want to take this person away from the children. For the sake of the children, I might consider it.
Thanks for your time.
YVR_BC, it usually lasts about a year, but it could be faster or it could drag on longer depending on contingencies. As mentioned before, for costs, this is properly discussed between you and your lawyer (or, if you want, you can get the contact details here).
By the way, allow me to clarify some matters. I don’t mind giving a quick reply, but, in most instances, I just can’t; I have hearings and clients to attend to (plus, I have to balance that with my baby boy and wife). I can’t give any legal opinion on your situation because I am prohibited from doing so. Lastly, I don’t know all the answers, and, in such instance, I’d admit that I don’t know.
Good luck and God bless.
Hi Atty. Fred, I only have a house and lot as my only property. Aside from the filing fee, is there an additional cost regarding this property like a certain percentage of the property tax when filing for a petition?
My husband and I were separated literraly but not legally for 3 years but we still have communication for quite sometime. We have one child, My ex-husband is giving support to my son amounting to 10,000 monthly and he shoulder the education.But normally the monthly allowance of my son is always delay for 2 weeks. On my part I shoulder the house rental, utilities,electricity and monthly budget of food and some unexpected expenses .He is presently working overseas and he earns 120,000 monthly. I’m also working overseas since last year and I’m earning 35,000 pesos monthly. Just want to inquire how much is the legal amount that my son should receive from his father?Do I still have rights to demand any financial matter to him since we are still legally married?One more thing is there any possibility that he can marry abroad and their marriage will be valid?What is our rights (my son and me)being the legal family?
Sir, would like to know if I can still file a petition for annulment if I already filed a petition for legal separation which is currently pending. Must the legal separation case be dismissed first? Or both can subsist?
EPV, I strongly suggest you read these posts: Q&A on annulment and divorce, and legal support. I can’t give you any legal advice because lawyers are prohibited from doing so in the absence of an attorney-client relationship. I also suggest you use the search function at the right sidebar (scroll down if you can’t see it), some of your questions are already covered in other discussions.
kathara, I assume that you already have a lawyer handling your case. Kindly seek his/legal opinion.
Good morning sir, i filed a declaration of void marriage to my american husband. the court ordered that a publication is needed because he lives abroad and cannot be summoned personally. my question is, is it possible not to publish it and just serve the summon thru registered mail because i still know his home and work addresses as well as phone numbers and emails. thank you so much. Sangre
dear atty,
good day to you sir !!!
i have a male friend whose separated for almost 3 yrs. and 4 mos now… he had a problem about his live-birth certificate. when he applied for a passport thats the only time he found out that on his birth cert. his sex there was “female” instead of “male”, he knows that it would takes time to fix all that, bec. he needs to submit a lot of documents.. but his question, is the “sex” on the life birth can be used as a ground for annulment?
This is the situtation:
Woman A and Man A had a daughter even before they got married. Within their two years of marriage Woman A had an affair with Man B and decided to leave her husband (Man A), and took their daughter. Finally both parties sorted to separate physically. Until now Woman A is still with Man B.
The question is:
Man A wants to file for annulment. What would be the possible grounds for this case?
Questions for all lawyers. How much would one have to spend when filinf for annulment? And on what grounds can one file for annulment? What if both parties agree to have the marriage annulled, who should file for annulment then? are there any centers or any offices that provide free legal service for women who want to have their marriage annuleled? Thanks
Sangre, please consult your lawyer on that matter. Please note that even with service of summons by publication, it must still be sent by registered mail to the last known address…unless, of course, the court orders otherwise.
Sofia, the grounds for annulment or declaration of nullity of marriage are discussed in some other posts. Kindly check the articles…then let me know if you find the ground you cited =)
Sweetest, same answer as that of Sofia.
Alyssa, try the Public Attorneys’ Office. Good luck.
My wife left since 1984 and I don’t have any news from her ever since. Can I file for Presumptive Death of My Absent Spouse. What are the chances that this will be granted. Recently I met someone and planned to marry her. Thanks
Deesian, the probability depends on the facts/evidence that you can show, among other things. Discuss this with your lawyer. Good luck.

Petitions for annulment between Filipinos, or those initiated by the Filipino spouse (in a marriage between a Filipino and a foreigner) may only be filed here in the Philippines. Good luck and God bless.

In the year 1995, we decided to get married because it is one of the requirements for our kids’ baptismal. His first wife has her own family now. Is our marriage is valid?

Hi,
I got a friend who just receive a copy of the final decision of the said annulment which she never had any idea that it was filled. Is is possible that they can get annulled without any notices receive when it was filled?
hi atty,
i know i have a silly question but i want to be honest. i had the wrong reasons for entering marriage 5 years ago. i got someone pregnant so i married her. there was no ceremony, because the mayor was a close friend, i simply secured a marriage certificate so my baby can bring my last name. but i lived together with my wife right after and had a 2nd and a third kid.
i really don’t love my wife and in fact i am not happy with her but i love my children. i am still young and i feel like im fooling myself for being with her, i feel trapped in this situation that it’s even depressing me sometimes with the thought that i am married to someone i don’t want to be with, i know it’s a big mistake. i’ve been planning every year to leave her but i want it legalized but i dont know the grounds. What are possible grounds?
Hi Attorney. Both me and my wife are ofws and we live in the same house but we don’t talk anymore. Is it possible for me to file a petition for annulment while both of us are still abroad and living in the same apartment? We only live under the same roof because of financial problems and the situation abroad but we don’t observe each others’ obligations anymore. I want to file a petition, but I cannot go home as yet. PLease tell me if it is possible and how I can do that even while I am still abroad. Thank you. Your website is very informative, more power to u.
Good day!
Nais ko lang po sanang humingi ng legal advice regarding sa sitwasyon ng kinikilala kong asawa.
Actually, nalaman ko lang po ang tunay nyang katayuang sibil 2 years ago. we live together for 5 years now but as live in partner, meron na rin kaming anak(1). 3 taon nya inilihim sa akin ang katotohanang sya ay kasal na. Base po sa kwento nya, it was a secret marriage and their oth 25 years old then. But since they got married on 1999, hindi po sila nagsama bilang husband and wife sa iisang bubong at hindi rin po sila nagkaanak. And within the year na kasal sila, nagkaroon po sila ng problem, kung saan involved ang pamilya ng babae. Until they ended their relation. Pinaghatiaan na rin nila ang kanilang konting naimpundar noon. Pero hindi po sila dumaan sa legal na proseso sa kanilang paghihiwalay. at sa loob ng mahigit 7 taon wala silang komunikasyon. Itong taon lang po sila muling nagkausap thru phone, para ayusin ang kaso ukol sa sitwasyon nila at mailapat ang kaukulang batas na makakapagpalaya sa kinikilala kong asawa mula sa kasal nya sa legal nyang asawa, dahil na rin po sa kahilingan ko at ng relihiyon na kinaaniban namin ngayon sapagkat pinagbabawal po dito ang live-in. Na pinagpasyahan na rin po naming magpakasal ngaunit dahil nga po problemang ito kaya di po natuloy.
Isa rin po sa nais kong malaman yung ukol sa batas regarding sa abandonment of marriage na kapag ang mag-asawa ay 7 taong walang komunikasyon, sinuman sa kanila ay pwede na ulit magpakasal sa iba.Meron po ba ito, exsisting ba ito? In case na meron po, ano ang dapat namin/nyang gawin? At paano? Or else, Suitable po ba ang annulment sa kaso nila o yung declaration of nullity of marriage ang dapat? atnais ko rin po sanang itanong kung saan sya(ang kinikilala kong asawa) makakalapit na humahawak ng ganitong kaso para sa mga “low-badget client”?
Hanggang dito na lang.umaasa po ako at hihintayin ko po ang inyong kasagutan at payo?
maraming salamat po! God bless!

The court issues the Decree after: (i) registration of the entry of judgment granting the annulment in the Civil Registry where the marriage was celebrated and in the Civil Registry of the place where the court is located; (ii) registration of the approved partition and distribution of the properties of the spouses in the proper Register of Deeds where the real properties are located; and (iii) delivery of the children’s presumptive legitimes in cash, property, or sound securities.
11. Registration of the Decree. The Decree must be registered in the Civil Registry where the marriage was registered, the Civil Registry of the place where the court is situated, and in the National Census and Statistics Office.
Atty.Fred, regarding section 11., Who will be in charge of the registrations? Will the CLIENT need to go to the said Civil Registries to take care of the registrations?
If yes,would there still be additional charges for these registrations? as far as i know, the NSO charges around 200 pesos for a marriage certificate and not more than a thousand…How about the registrations of the decree in the Civil Registries, do they charge additional fees for it?

hello attorney, im seeking for advice in my situation. im an ofw. i have a 2 yr old daughter. all this time me and my parents support the upbringing of my daughter. i gave chance to the father of my daughter to make up for everthing. he’s been in and out of my life, he doesnt help me financially, and i manage that for almost 4 years. i thought that getting married will help him boost up and drive him to be responsible, yet alas im still struggling to send money to him cuz i encouraged him to study culinary to make it his resource for work. but he’s still not working. i am so tired of sending him money all the time. and in the process im neglecting the needs of my child. i want to nullify our marriage. we’ve been married for only 7 months. i dont want him to use the opportunity to go to canada as an excuse. i wont allow him to use me as his passport. when we got married civil, he didnt have the proper documentation and his birth certificate was wrong spelling (he was still fixing it) but still they married us. what grounds do i have to have our marriage nullified? my family doesnt like him because of him being tamad. please please do help me. thanks.
Gud pm attorney,
the situation is: when i was in the phils, weekly lang uwi ko sa family ko sa bulacan. In manila, i lived w/ my mother (that’s lasted for 7yrs). W/ that, dami kong sikreto na di nya nalalaman. But we’re still living as husband & wife. Before i went here in AUS last year, cnabi ko sa kanyang matagal ko na syang di mahal. Now i have the money, i’m planning to file an annul (as discussed w/ her). Is there any chance that being not inlove (anymore)& hiding too many secrets can be a ground for annulment (under Psychological incapacity perhaps?) tnx.
hi, i hope my question will be answer even in a brief explanation..
i want to know what should we do if someone is married to a person that used fake birth certificate on their wedding? is it voidable? is it the same with the costs to other filed cases? please answer.
Question for all lawyers
I am overseas worker here in UAE, i am married for 5 years due to force and intimidation, but even though we are married in the papers in 5 years, we are living with each other for more than 4 years since after our marriage because of her incapabilities on her physical aspect, she is insane and not treating me well and also our childrens.
is this valid reason to file an annulment and how much is the cost for this? and is this possible to file even im here in the UAE?
Thanks.
Dear Atty,
I have just recently had an annulment. It was granted on the 12th of May this year. I would just like to find out if a cenomar would be issued if ever i would like to get married later on. How long would it take before the nullity of my previous marriage would reflect on the nso records. Thanks.
my husband and I had our civil marriage last Feb. 19 2006,Sunday (the reason, I was pregnant). I was informed by the secretary that our license would be out the following day (Feb. 20, Monday) so she asked me if she could put Feb. 20 instead of Feb.19 on our marriage cert. I didn’t really thought about it at all and so I said “no problem”. We have never really lived together since the day we got married, he would just visit me and my daughter from time to time and would only give 4 thou a month for support, my daughter was 11 months when he stopped calling me. Probably because of the heated argument we had a couple of days before our daughter’s first birthday when I discovered he has in his possession things that wasn’t his, like my mom’s cds, my brother’s game console, etc. which I am very sure he did not borrow nor did I give him. A couple of months ago I received an email from him saying “musta na kyo ng bata…di ko alam kung paano ko maayos. sarili ko problema eh…pakiramdam ko at alam ko immature ako. ”
But still I’m scared of seeing him again, because of the emotional abuse I had to deal with before. What’s the best legal action I should take?
Thanks, GOd bless and more power!
Hi Attorney,
I’ve been married for almost 21 years now and my problem started 11 years ago when my wife have an affair with another man and the worst thing they had a child which is in my custody up to now. I’ve only learned her infidelity when the child was born, I still tried to make our marriage work for the sake of our young children then, but it seems the more I tried the more I couldn’t bear the situation. Will it still be a ground for an annulment even though it took me 11 years before I decided to apply for it? For now I am out of the country and I am looking for legal advice if my grounds is reasonable and what will be my next move. I need someone who can I seek professional advice for the procedure on how to apply for annulment and the total cost I will incur during the process and for how long will it take for the annulment.
Hi Atty.,
I got married in 1996 and found out that my husband have not filed annulment as he told me. I wasn’t able to meet his family when we decided to get married because of a lot of reason resulting from a cumpolsive liar as I found out later on. After meeting his family, his father, who by the way is a lawyer, told me that the marriage is void due to the fact that he is still married. Since that day, I’ve tried so hard to get a way from him but he has his coniving ways of getting thru me. To make the story short, I left him and has not heard from him for more than 10 years. I would like to have my so-called previous marriage declared void but the problem is I don’t have a copy of his marriage certificate and I have tried calling his parents home to get his contact details. I am an OFW and would like to start with the proceedings and would like to know how I can get a copy of his marriage certificate.
my friend wife filed the annulment case in aparri cagayan eventhough both of them are not residence of cagayan within 6 mos. she got a favorable decision..he appealed but was denied april 2008 he got the finality..only this year we find out that the reason she filed an annulment bcoz she was pregnant that time with her lover the child was born 2 mos. before the decision of the annulment came out last feb 2009 the husband filed adultery case against her wife still in fiscal level.
questions is:
1. though its more than a year since the finality of annulment can the husband appeal the decision here in manila court of appeals ?
2. re the adultery case he filed last feb 2009 will it prosper since there is a finality of annulment in the lower court april 2008 the husband reasoning is only this year he find out the reason of her wife to file annulment is bcoz she was bearing a child courtesy of her lover.. can the wife escape the crime bcoz she is smart to file an annulment and got a favorable decision while she is pregnant
i know this is something confusing for everybody who will be reading this so i’ll put it this way.
A – husband
C – wife; an ex-girlfriend for 7years
E – husband has a child with this woman; workmate and unofficial girlfriend for few months, say 6months
M – boyfriend of E
here we go.
Dec 2008 – E and A were living on a same apartment and now E was pregnant to A. At first, E wasnt so grateful to have a child to this man bec she’s still engaged with her boyfriend for 5years. So E had to break up with M on March 2009. Prior to this, A was so intimated with the fact that E still loves M and was thinking that E is just making him believe that she wants him. A was thinking that E is just living with him becauseof the child. On May 2009, A left the apartment and didnt show up for a week. E had been constantly making a neffort to talk to a via calls, sms and emails. A promsied that he’d comback but this show up only after 3months, August 2009. While A is away, C had befriended E so as to get information about her relationship with A. In deep pain, E was saying (thru sms) to C that she doesnt want A and E regrets to have A in her life. Now, C was showing those messages to A making A angry to E but still not talking to E. Still in May, A texted E that he was to marry another woman who was pregnant to him as well prior to E’s pregnancy and that same day A had to attend their marriage. E wasnt aware that this one is just a bluff but for her A wouldnt really do that to her. To sum it up, C triggered the anger of A to E though A loves E so much. It is C who planned for the ghost marriage (didnt really happened) so that E would no longer be persisten tabout A. A and E didnt talk from then on. After sometime in July 2009, C asked A to marry her so that E wouldnt get anything from A just in case the baby will be born. C was so bitter because A dropped her before and she couldnt win him back. A, who was so upset with E, accepted the idea of marrying C since C was so persistent to have A. The marriage was just an arranged marriage in the Manila City Hall. When they arrived there, They just signed for something and then paid someone whom we can call a fixer. Now in August 2009, A and E met again and they reconciled. E didnt know anything only after a week when C, who is in a foreign country now, told E that she’s married to A. A told E that he didnt want the marriage. It’s just that he lost hope that E will comeback to her. Can A file for fraud and have this nullified? Or is it voidable? Cause A wanted to marry E.
Hope this one will be given an attention. It will be much appreciated. Thank you.

As i seek advice, that in my case i have not to go on the court because from the beginning my marriage is void. please need your response..thanks
To lawyers:
i had filed a case against my husband, wherein i was able to secure his warrant of arrest last September 2007 with No Bail Recommendations. Due to financial incapacity and lack of connections, he is still at large until this very moment moment. I believe the case i filed against him is a strong ground for annulment. My question is, if i wanted to get married in the future, do i still need to annul our marriage as he is still not convicted, or, do i wait until “five (5) years of no communication” and can remarry to another man?
Thank you very much for your help…
Good pm sir, I just like to ask for actions to be taken by my friend.
My friend married 8 years ago (2002) but the girl refused and haven’t used his surname from the time of their marriages up to now. He is a seafarer, and supported his wife for her studies and after his wife graduated (while he was on board – 2005) He found out that his wife already has a boyfriend. When he returned, he did try to save the marriages for a several months unfortunately, the girl refused and says that she is in-love with somebody else and need space! Since then, they did not see each other anymore and he just let the girl do her things! The Last time he heard, his ex-wife has already had a two (2) year old son with his ex-boyfriend.
He is currently on the Philippines (2010). One of his friend says that his ex-wife just waiting for him to enter into a relationship with other girl so that she can file a case against him.
Is this right? in the first place, the girl committed an adultery & eventually now the girl just waiting for my friend to make a mistake. What are the possible legal or necessary actions to be taken by my friend so they both move on with their lives.
Thank you and hoping for your response.
Thanks

Hi Atty Fred,
Just have some inquiry. My wife and i already separated for almost a year now. Before we part ways we signed marital settlement agreement (MSA). My question now, do our MSA is valid or admissible in court in case my wife file a petition for annulment?. Please help, thanks.
Hi Atty,
I just want to clarify the following:
a)’After the trial proper, the court renders its decision, which is different from the Decree of annulment. A decision, whether granting or dismissing the petition, becomes final upon the expiration of 15 days from notice to the parties.” — (a) 15 working days or 15 days including weekends and holidays? (b) what is the difference between decision and decree of annulment?
b)”Liquidation, partition and distribution, custody, support of common children and delivery of their presumptive legitimes. These are done upon entry of the judgment granting the petition.” —> (a) Who does this: the court, the lawyer or the petitioner or the respondent?
c) ” Issuance of Decree of annulment. The court issues the Decree after: (i) registration of the entry of judgment granting the annulment in the Civil Registry where the marriage was celebrated and in the Civil Registry of the place where the court is located; (ii) registration of the approved partition and distribution of the properties of the spouses in the proper Register of Deeds where the real properties are located; and (iii) delivery of the children’s presumptive legitimes in cash, property, or sound securities.” —> (a) who registers the entry of jusdgement? : the court or the petitioner? (b)same as a (c) who delivers presumptive legitimes?
d) how long does it take from the decision to the decree of annulment?
e) ” Registration of the Decree. The Decree must be registered in the Civil Registry where the marriage was registered, the Civil Registry of the place where the court is situated, and in the National Census and Statistics Office.” —> who is responsible for registering the decree and how is it done?
Lastly, if i hire a lawyer for annulment, will he be responsible for all the steps you outlined above or just until a decree is issued or just until the decision?

Sir I got married last 2007, my wife did not declare that she was married even when she renewed her PRC nursing license and her passport. June of 2010 her lesbian bestfriend/GF came back into our lives and started courting her. My wife said she told the lesbian to stop but she didn’t, it caused us to fight many times. She even with held information that the lesbian went to the condo where we are staying while I am at work. This sept 2011, when she came back for another vacation. She bluntly told me na sila na, she would have the lesbian visit her after i leave for work. I even caught them on a spy cam and real time having sex…caught them Sept 17, 2011 my wife naked and the lesbian half naked. Honestly, i want to file against the lesbian for meddling with my family life, i want to have the marriage dissolved. is there anyway i can ask both of their licenses to be revoked. my wife is a nurse while the lesbian is a civil engineer. How much will it cost and how long will it take? and what are the procedures?
My friend was been tied up on a marriage on what so called “PANATA” by his parents in province, stating that the first girlfriend should be the one that their ‘Junior’ should marry. Unfortunely, the girl said to him that she is pregnant, and told to him that he is the father, not knowing that my he is the father of the child yet he still accepted it. His parents knew his problem and told their son to marry the girl thru civil wedding. The two couple obey the command of their parents and do the civil… but theres a mistake on the wedding because the only available in the Municipality is the registrar. The mayor went out for a vacation that time that’s why nobody solemnize their wedding. What they do is just they submitted needed requirements and then signed in the marriage contract.
After the wedding, my friend found out that his ex gf has lots of boyfriends in school before they get wedd. and during the day of their livin together for 2-3 mos. he found out that she is even meeting chat mates abroad in Manila and doing cybersex with her auntie at home. At first, he thoughts its just only a rumors but when he made an investigation, he found the truth. Using Facebook as his first step, he found out that his wife has a lots of relation with lots of man in FB… when He went to Manila… he saw that his wife has another man. He confronted the guy, but when he came near to his wife, the guy told him, “Don’t touch her.. she’s my love”.
Now everything is a doomed for him.. he wants annullment. Can you pls. advise what would be the best way to do? He really doesnt want to be with her… cause she has a very bad attitude too. He prefer to die rather than to be with her anymore.
Filipino citizen legally residing overseas and need an marriage annulment? Simpler, quicker and (in many cases) less expensive solution – obtain foreign citizenship and avoid this scam. Maybe someday the Philippines will update their Family Law to recognize divorce, as does every other country on earth, but don’t get you hopes up anytime soon… far too many pesos at stake.
Atty Fred….
My friend will file a case on annulment with his marriage with his wife this Monday hopefully because his wife is very irresponsible and he don’t feel love anymore as a counselling according with his lawyers kasama ba na magsama cla in house for 6 months and to try if mag work ulit ang relationship nila…as far as i know his wife cheated about money matters …May i know if may laban ba ang kaso ng friend ko saan po ba mahulog ang grounds nila sa Psychological Incapacity ba?
Hoping for your answer and thanks…

sir, i have a question. i’ve been married for about 12years i think, and we never even lived together even after our wedding day. we have a daughter but she died after 24 hrs after being born. we filed a legal separation (i dont remember what month it was) but i dont know if it is registered or not (coz we both just signed the papers and gave it to my parents). then, after several months or 1 year i think, as i remember, she had lived in with another man and have his daughter who is now i think in kindergarten. and now she had her 2nd child i think last year. i dont have any intention of filing a case against her for i want to have my own relationship too but im afriad she might turn against me coz i wish to marry my girlfriend. is it possible for me to remarry even w/o annulment? would my case be enough to make the process of annulment fast? hoping for your kind and knowledgeable answer to my question and thank you so much in advance!

Hi atty.. I want to ask about marriage there in the philippines!! Im almost divorced in my previous japanese husband in japan.. I want to married someday my boyfriend ther in the philippines did i need a court order?? To married again??
Dear Atty.
In behalf of my cousin her husband want to file petition of nullity of marriage for the reason of lack of authority of solemnizing officer( Minister of Sect)since they are both catholic. Of course they have marriage license before the civil ceremony and the minister license is authorized to marry at the time they get married at the city hall. My question does it mean that the marriage is void from the very beginning? Only to find out later that he remarry while my cousin was still in abroad. Her husband refused to talk to her since then. Now they are living in the US soil and the 2nd wife claimed that my cousin husband is her dependent. So confusing bec. my cousin´s marriage was still existing. My cousin acquired european citizenship and even declared him as a husband in all transaction she made it. Question Can we still file a bigamy case though they file it already the nullity of marriage? He was hiding now in the US and had no plan to go home since he knew it already that my cousin is much aware to her 2nd marriage. BOTH MARRIAGES TAKES PLACE IN THE PHILIPPINES. pls help.. thank you.

Hi Atty,
Good day.
I am separated to my husband for over 15yrs now. We’ve got married on December of 1993 and got separated November of 1997. All the years of being together our marriage was really on the racks. We tried to work it out but it seemed that incompatibility always in between us. We have two children, our eldest now is 19yo and the youngest is 17yo. I raised our children alone. I never had any support from my husband morally and financially. He has his own family now having 3 children from his live-in partner, (the last thing I heard about him). We’ve never seen each other for so long only last January of this year for the reason that my father in-law died. So with due respect to his family, me and my children attended the wake.
I believe that everyone deserves a second chance to be happy. i am in thought of filling an annulment to set myself free. Things never ended the way we would like it to be. So i have to move on and find a new happiness in my life since my husband has his own family now. My children are grown up now and sooner or later they will have to face their own family life. I have been working so hard all these years to send them to a good school. They are both in college now.
In this matter, I am seeking a legal advise on how to file an annulment and how much it will cost me. Should the number of years that we were separated would consider our marriage null and void? Please advise.
Thank you so much.
Regards,
Ems
Hi. I hope you can help me. I have a question on Article 53 of Fam Code.
Here is the situation –
My parents were married 1981. They lived separately starting 1993. My mother filed for an annulment and the court decision was given on 1998. I know there are steps to be done after the decision to complete the process. My mother has just filled the court decision to local civil registrar. According to her she received a certificate of registration and that’s it. She wasn’t given any advise as to what further steps she needed to do.
Researching the census website now, it says there that after getting the certificate of registration, she has to secure certification of finality from the court which rendered the decree, get the MC with annotation from local civil registrar, and file in NSO. All of these latter steps she wasn’t able to do.
As a matter of fact, we got an NSO copy last year (2012) of their MC and there was no annotation.
My father got married to his long time live-in mistress on 2007. My father died 2011.
My father has two properties (gratuitous) that was transferred to him 1997. The “presumptive legitime” of my brother and mine was not settled in the annulment, because my father did not mention he had these properties.
Can we apply Article 53 of Fam Code to second marriage because:
1) 1998 Annulment was not properly filed (ie no decree of finality, not filed in NSO) before the subsequent marriage in 2007
2) The legitimes of my brother and mine for the two properties (these properties were donated by our grandmother) were not settled prior to subsequent marriage
Thank you and God bless
Hello! I would like to know the process for annulment. I and my husband got married last oct.2010(civil wedding).Last December 2010 I went here in UAE to work.After how many months like 3-4 months working in UAE our communication with my husband was lost. I tried to reach him in different ways but he dont want me to get in touch with him.in fact he has a lot of ways to contact as we have common friends who knows how to get in touch with me..until now I dont what was happening to him..I dont have any news where he is now..but I heard from my friend that he has his new family now. I am an ofw, how can I file annulment for our marriage?What grounds should I apply for this? Please advice. Thank you
I have a question regarding procedure during an annulment case due to psychological incapacity in Angeles City. Is it typical procedure to have the pre-trial, have an appearance where the plaintiff testifies, have an appearance where the fiscal cross-examines, an appearance where the psychologist testifies, and an appearance where the witness testifies? In the US these would occur at one setting so the judge has a complete view of the case that is not staggered across many month. Thanks!
Addendum: the defendant is not replying to court notices.
I would like to know if i have the right to file for an annulment.I am five years now working abroad after 12 years of trying to cope up with my husband’s alcoholism and irresponsibility. My three kids now are being looked after by relatives. My eldest son is under my sister-in-law’s care who is now in college and my two,a girl and a boy are under my uncle’s custody and both are in private schools. My husband is living alone and jobless and is away from our children and not bothering to help me financially to support our children. I shoulder everything of my children’s basic needs and education.
Atty.
I am now currently working abroad and I want to file a petition for annulment. I had been married since feb of 2008. But me and my partner never stayed in one roof. The marriage we did is for the purpose to go to abroad before but unfortunately it didn’t happened so now I want to have a legal action on this matter where I can file a petition here in Dubai? Is it possible not to show on the court hearing? And how much will be the total expense of everything until it finish. I am hoping for your answer.

I really wanted my status and maiden name back. How long will it take for this process (an estimate will do)? And, hwo much will it cost me as well? Also, I have applied for cahnge in status in my passport, Now I will be migrating somewhere and I need my passport in my maiden name. In DFA’s site, there is no other requirement on how I can do it (in my case, what is stated there are for those annuled or the spouse is dead). We are almost 4 years separated by the way. Please help me out. I badly needed an advice regarding my situation.
I’d realyl appreciate an answer. Thank you so mcuh and more power.

Hello!
I have a question because my GF is now separated to her Husband since she found out that the Husband is married to another woman. Means that the husband is married before they before their wedding with out the knowledge of my GF. As per my BF that the Church didn’t required them to provide all the documents needed. Including the CENOMAR of both parties. Now my GF is trying to get out their marriage since we are planning to get married after this is sort out. Is there anyway we could do to make this much easier. Any advice that we could do since her lawyer advised her to Get a proof that the first wife is alive and that’s enough to void their marriage. Our problem is that the First wife is not cooperating with us. Is there any other way that we could get proof that the First wife is alive with out here consent / authorization. Could we get information to local government ( NSO, COMELEC ETC )and will it be valid?
Hope for your reply! this will be a big help for us! Thanks!
gud pm po sir,tanong ko lang ano po BA IBIG SABIHIN ng “motion for leave to serve summons by publication”? base po sa post nyo mas una po yung summons before decision. may decision na po galing sa korte tapos binigyan po ako nitong summons by publication..
Atty Fred,
This would be a very long story.
I was married to a man when i was 22 and he was 25 at that time.
Before all that we went on dating for Less than a year…
And something happend. So it was obvious that filipino traditions are quite strict … so his aunt decided to tell us that we needed to get married and i needed to convert from catholic and begin my doctrines to be an Igleasia ni cristo.
So far i got baptize and with all that I know this man had been in with a 3 years relationship with his 2nd degree cousin. So far he told me and he promised there was no communication and there was nothing going on. So we decided to continue with this. no one knows. i cry alot coz i know theres something wrong womens instinct
After a few weeks away from our marriage ceremony… I caught him… I saw there was a dialed number on his raoming phone and i tried calling the phone and it was the same woman (his cousin) he is aware of that too… So i didnt blow my fuse so i asked him the same night. have u talked to ur ex (cousin) lately .. he said know. Thats when i investigated… I log in to his yahoo account and in Gods grace the lady was online so i decided to ask this lady and pretended i was her cousin talking…(long story short) she did honestly told me that yes, u just spoke to me yesterday. And a week before that… Then decided to tell the girl “hey its me his fiance”
Then she said sorry.. So i printed and piece of paper and showed it on his face! Anyways sir after that we still went through the wedding as the wedding was arranged and if I backed out he will be removed from his religious position(i dont know what and i dont care). so I left it. Now weve been seperated for almost 5 yrs i dont talk to him or get i touched with him… As i know he is a very confused and a difficult man…but he has a Girlfriend now( i know that it would happen sooner or later) anyways sir his gf keeps on messaging me regarding this issue…I left him coz i know he’ll be unfaithful to me and he is mentally unstable. There was this time which i cant forget 3 days from our wedding he asked me “can i invite her (cousin – ex) on our wedding.
please advice me what can i do to end this ridiculous problem with this ridiculous man. I just want to move on. I dont want to do anything with his gf or any piece of his retarded life. PS we never had babies. no shared properties.
His gf is asking me to pay for all the expenses of this annullment and he is also asking me to fix all this as for him. It is my fault coz i left him and this is what i wanted. Please advice:
Legal seperation or annulment i am currently overseas in singapore.
Hello, I didn’t see the procedure for the declaration of nullity, does it mean that it is the same procedure as filing the annulment? My cousin’s boyfriend is married to a lady who was married before. What can he do since his marriage is null and void?
Thank you and more power..
Red Orange, yes it is the same. Good luck.
Hi Atty.
I have a question, I consulted to a lwayer and already in the process, we started last june and my lawyer still didnt finished the draft till now, is it really taking long months before we can file the petition? Please let me know how long do you think it takes if we filed the petition next month. I just want to know if it is really taking a year to filed a petition. We dont have conjugal property. Please I will wait for your advise.
Dear Attorneys,
Greetings!
I wanted to be enlightened o this matter I brought up. I do hope you’ll get to stumble on this letter of mine and spare a few minutes, in giving insights or advise.
We got married at first at the city hall of manila, December 17, 1992. I was 20 y/o and she was 18 that time. We just decided to get wed. An impulsive action for both of us.
During that same day, I recalled that there was like a waiver form asked to be signed by the parents of my wife to be. This has has something to do with her age at that time?
Anyway, the signature was forged. For she had to keep it as secret for a while ’til the needed time comes. When it came, her mom and aunt verified from NSO if our civil marriage is registered/valid.
We had our 1st child, April 1995. Church wedding 10th of May 1996. and July 2000 for our 2nd child.
During the years we have been together, there were several instances, I/we decided to part ways. From Nov of 1997 up to this time, we haven’t been living together. The children was with me at first til she had the opportunity to get them away from me.
We had a chance to talk twice or thrice for less than an hour for each. in a 3 month period. We have agreed to part ways, verbally. From that time up to this very moment, we have not seen, hear, talked to each other.
I wanted to set things right, legally, for I am in a relationship now and wanted to tie the knot again, possibly after or during process of nullifying 1st marriage.
My query. Is there a way, chance, factor, in this scenario, that can be qualified, so the process could be expedited/hastened/done the shortest time possible? Matter on the length of time (7 years)?
Your valued time and expertise to be shed will be appreciated.
Much gratitude.
Atty.,

Hello I need some help. I am married in the Philippines and now I live here in the states for 3 years now. I have already spoke to a lawyer and filed for divorce which my husband refused to sign. I can spend more money and try to get him served again but if he refuses again I can lose all that money. He left our two kids without knowing them, which he just send me messages that he needs space and tired of taking care of our kids-for reasons my attorney knows but can’t do anything about it. I want to get married here in the U.S. But I am married there. I want to bring my children here and I have no clue how!. I am illegally staying here in states, which I can’t go back inthe philippines to file annulment..

Hi Atty,
Just want to seek legal advice regarding my current situation. we got married at the age of 20 and 21, marriage lasted for almost 3 years. Latter part of the marriage has been difficult for both of us. He left me with my mother in law jobless while he is on the job training for a shipping company. Until such time that I observe that something is happening with him while we were apart. He was so engrossed with the company of his friends that he often drinks. Until such time he went home for a Holy week vacation while we were sleeping I just woke up seeing that he was on my top choking me and kept pushing ny head to the tip of the bed until I cant breath. Fortunately, there are relatives who were there for a vacation and they notice that i am shouting for help. Months had passed, I just kept on battling with my freedom, I cannot even go to work or freely go out, it is where i felt hopeless and used to self pity. I graduated in a prestigious University and gain multiple eligibilities in the government. However, he is preventing me to go to work for his obsession and jealousy. There are times that he would make up stories that I go with a different man its because he dreamt of it. Latter part of the marriage, I seen a different man, far from whom i promised my lifetime. We always fought, and something happen between us, he went home one night and had an argument earlier that day, I attempted to ask for an apology to stop the argument. He went home drunk, punched me, hit me to the wall, choke me and slapped the different parts of my body.Only then i realized, He was under the influence of drugs as confirmed by his colleague. We ended in Police station have him blottered and was brought to a nearest hospital for my medication due to severe bruises in my body. The policemen asked him of what had happened.. and he just said “I didnt hurt her”, always innocent of what he did as always. By then, thats the last time that we saw each other. For almost a year already we dont have any communication. I would like somehow to ask if I’ll decide for an anullment, are those experiences grounds to consider marriage null and void?
Thank you.
Sir may i ask ground po ba ng default if yung respondent ayaw mag cooperate like mag pa psychiatry evaluation?..pede pa rin ba e proceed ang annulement case kahit yung respondent ayaw mag cooperate?
Yung pau po ba walang provided na libreng attorney for annaulment?
Hi atty…
Please enlighten me po. I am now 29 yrs old. I got married when I was 19 years old, my husband then was 21. We were married without submitting any requirements like CENOMAR. I Remeber after our court marriage the clerk ask my husband if he can submitt a letter of consent signed by parents or gaurdian. He asked his grandmother to sign a paper without his grandmother knowing it was a letter of consent for marriage. It was only my family who were present during our civil marriage, none from his family side and nobody knew he got married until he brought me to their house 2 months before I gave birth. We have a daughter and lived in the house of his parents for about 2 years after I gave birth. Then he went abroad to work and we had issues then until I finally decided to move out to his parents house while he was still abroad. Few months he came home to the house where me and my daughter stayed, we had few arguments and after 1 week he left. Never supported our daughter for 5 years, no communication, explanation or anything. Now I found a partner, I have my second child (2yrs old now) with my new partner and I marry my new partner now. I know also that my previous husband is having a relationship with other woman now and they have 8 month old kid.

Hi,
I get married 10yrs ago and have a child of 2, those 5yrs to stay together and 5 yrs working in and out in our country. i get verbally abused with this women that I marry. Now, that i finally come to my senses that I couldn’t take it anymore I want our marriage to get void and move on to my life. I’m willing to give child support and be responsible financially with the 2 kids that i leave behind (since she doesn’t want me to see them anymore). I would like to know where and how can i start the process of annulment. Also recently Pope Francis have an announcement in regards of speeding up the Annulment, I wonder if our marriage is included in this case. We get married in civil not in church, hopefully i or we whoever have the same case as mine will grant the liberty of choosing the life we want and not to live in pain and regrets. Please spare us some enlightenment where to begin the process. Your expertise in this matter are well appreciated.
Sincerely,
Shane

I am an OFW(japan) for almost 11 years. i had suspicion that my wife was having an affair with another man since 2011. i went for vacation to philippines from tokyo in 2012 for 3 weeks. when i got back to japan i was informed by my wife that she is pregnant for 2 months already. At 5 months pregnant she was hospitalized and had a miscarriage. The result of her miscarriage was an Ectopic pregnancy. According to some doctors Ectopic pregnancy can last for 6 to 16 weeks only. i did not confront her about this matter. I had my vacation again for 2013 febuary. On my vacation we had only 2 sex for 3 weeks.I memorized the date when we had sex. She got pregnant again. I waited for 9 months for the good news but told me its not time yet for delivery of the baby. it last for almost 11 months of my counting. So i went back again for vacation last 2014 of febuary. what i did was, i took sample for NDA test of the baby and me for testing. after a month i recieve the result of the DNA test and it was negative. i am not the father of the baby. Now that i have the proof of my suspicion on my wife of having an affair with another man, i wanted to file a criminal charges on her. is there any suggestion that you can recommend. i need help. thank you.

I just want to make it clear, is it true that if you are separated for 6 years but not legally separated, the marriage is consider as null and void?
I am married with my husband for 6 years now and he is such a good person. Late last year, I lost my twin daughters and I suffered from depression.
After 2 months I feel like.I’m getting better…but after a couple of.months the depression starts again and I was even thinking of taking my own life. My demeanour is starting to change, and I can feel that slowly I am losing myself…
I love my husband and I know he loves me so much…but I want him to be happy.
I would like to file for an annulment while I’m still in my right mind…
Would it be possible? How long for the process?

Hi Atty, bale ask ko lang po kung ano po pweding maging scenario ng annulment case ko kasi po due to the delays of submission of my phychological test/report & un appearance ng phycholigical doctor eh na denied po yung submission ng report despite of filing our motion for reconsideration. So as advice po eh since na denied yung report hindi na eto mag serve as part of my evidence, at hindi na kami mag file sa court of appeal with regards to this matter, antay nalang daw kami ng decision don sa petition namin.

Now, He dont know how/where to get started of getting out from that status, can he filed for that “annulment” even though their reason was not listed in the grounds?
Hoping for a reply.

Hello,
I am a Filipina living here in the US. I just recently married my boyfriend here in the US and we are planning on getting married there in the Philippines next year or 2018. However, upon trying to register my marriage here in the US with the Philippine embassy, I was required to get a CENOMAR from NSO. I received my CENOMAR but it says there that I am married. I have never gotten married my entire life (except for my now husband here in the US) and was shocked to see my ex-boyfriends name listed as my spouse in the documents. How can I remedy this? Is there a way to void this? I don’t have any contact with my ex anymore and is not planning on looking or contacting him. What are the ways in how I can declare this marriage void? Also, what documents do I need to provide as proof? All my legal documents says I am single. I never cohabitated with my ex and have no idea how this record came up as I have never signed any marriage document? How long will correcting this record take? Thank you.
Hi Atty.,
I would like to thank you for having this forum and I have read some articles already which are definitely enlightening.
Anyway, I have some questions which I hope you won’t mind answering as I already tried a “search” but could not find the related articles…
I was married (church) in 1996, had a son but separated from my 1st wife in 1998.
My ex-wife was able to secure a “church annulment” but was not able to “finalize everything” due to lack of funds.
I re-married (civil) in 2003 and currently have kids with my 2nd wife.
My ex-wife and I decided and about to start the process to finalize our annulment now that we have the funds. My questions are:
1. What happens to my 2nd marriage once my annulment is granted/finalized? I know it is not valid anyway because I know my annulment wasn’t finalized then but is there any repercussion if we just get married (legally) again after my annulment is finalized? Do we just proceed normally as per process like 2 people getting married for the first time or will the process be different?
2. What happens to my son with my ex-wife once the annulment is finalized? How does this affect him? He is already 22 years old now and I am still financially supporting him as he does not have a job.
3. What happens to my kids with my 2nd wife? How does this affect them once my annulment is finalized? And if ever, is there anything I have to do?
4. My ex-wife and I have not bought any property so technically speaking, we do not have any “conjugal properties” to speak of. BUT, my 2nd wife and I have bought some properties for ourselves, under our names of course. How does this affect these properties? Are these still considered conjugal? Is there anything I should do once my annulment is finalized?
Many thanks in advanced for your advise.

When my children travel my ex-husband sign the consent that he allows my children to join me here, the reason why I filed a legal separation statement because my ex-husband was with another woman and up this year they live together and I also heard that they got a civil marriage, now I want to file an annulment so that I can freely back as single status, what is the best ground I can file to void my marriage, and its been 16 years now that I was not in contact with him. I do have my full legal custody of my youngest child filed in the court of Canada when she was still underage, I did serve the summons to him via registered mail, and approved by Canadian Court way back 2010. Can you please help me if I can start filling my annulment while here in Canada.

Hello sir,
What if the couple has been estranged for more than ten years and the womas was the one who cohabitated with two more partners and had two kids with different partners, what are the chances that if the husband files for the nullity of marriage he will be grabte the annulment?
Dear Attorney,
Gusto ko po mag file ng annulment, Hiwalay na po kami ng asawa ko since 2008 , our marriage was on 2005. May isang anak po kami. Since nung nag hiwalay po kami, di na po kami nag uusap at nagkikita. Currently, may dalawang anak na po sya sa ibang babae. Since po nung nagsasama kami minsan lang po sya mag bigay ng budget para sa amin at ako lahat ang gumagawa ng work sa bahay at the same time nag tratrabaho po ako sa labas. Hindi sya nag aalaga ng anak namin before, it was my mother who will come to our house para kunin at alagaan ang anak nami kasi di nya kayang alagaan at di sya nag eefort na alagaan ito. Palagi syang umuwi ng bahay ng late na at if ever may mga ayaw kami, di sya umuuwi ng house namin. Wala syang matino na trabaho at kung may pera man sya ginagamit nya ito para sa mga outing at camping nila ng barkada nya. One time, may nag tell sa akin (sister in law nya) na mayhinahatid sya na babae na wowork sa call center ng madaling araw. When I confronted him sabi nya sa nagseselos daw ako ng walang prove at walang dahilan. Nung nag start palang yung marriage namin, gusto ko mag karoon ng dagdag na anak pero ayaw nya, kaya napilitan ako umunum ng gamot everytime na ginagamit nya ako. Pero nakikipag sex sya akin kung gusto nya lang kahit ayaw ko dahil pagod ako sa work. Kahit na may sakit ako at naka admit sa hospital na gawa pa rin nya na makipag sex sa akin. Kahit nung nagbubuntis ako at after manganak paligi parin syang nakikipag sex sa akin kahit na ayaw ko, WALA AKO MAGAWA KASI NGA ASAWA KO SYA. I feel degraded, na wala na ang pag kababae ko. Wala syang respeto sa akin bilang TAO at ASAWA nya.
Nung mag BF-GF pa kami,, may na buntis na sya na kasamahan nya sa work dati pero nagawa ko syang patawarin kc nga sya ang naka una sa akin at mahal ko sya. Pero nag iba sya nung mag asawa na kami, Tamad sya, umuwi lang sya ng bahay kung matutulog na sya, Di ako pwede kami celebrate sa family ko kc dahil daw sa relihiyon nila. Ni hindi sya maka bantay sa isang anak namin. As In Irrresponsable syang tao.
Simula nung naghiwalay kami , wala syang binigay na supporta sa anak namin.
Ang isa pa sa ikinagagalit ko ngayon, yung isang anak nya, ginamit pa ang apelyedo nya dun sa isang bata without my permission.
At yung anak ko ayaw nya makipag kita sa tatay nya kc daw may iba na daw na anak ang tatay nya. Masakit sa aking kaluuban na HE hurt na feelings of our SON. Nakakahiya sya.
Attorney, Please help me ano po process ng annulment para matrabaho ko sya sa lalong madaling panahon.
Hope to hear from you after reading this email of mine.

my lived in partner is married but the said marriage took place without complying the proper requirements. weve been together for years and already have a child but unfortunately, that time when we were on a long distance relationship, he flerted with this girl and that girl got pregnant. because he wanted to fix things up, he went to the girl’s province but after three days, the girl’s parents set up a civil wedding where he cant control since he came there alone. what is the best way to do to attest that the marriage is void since they didnt comply with the proper process as well as the civil wedding took place after three days he went there.
Hi attorney good day
Nais Ko pong itanong kung paano e process ang annulment namin kasi nasa abroad sya. Ang sabi nya ipadala Ko lang sa kanya ang dapat nyang permahan. Malaki din ba gagastosin Ko niyan kasi payag naman kaming dalawa na mghiwalay na. May 1 anak lang kami attorney. Bahay lang ang meron kami,wla ibang ari-arian.
Salamat sa pagsagot Atty.
After the Judgement (Decision Granted) what will be the next procedure to get the marriage certificate with annotations that states the nullify of marriage? and annulment decree? Thanks
Gusto ko ng hiwalayan asawa ko.. babaero at iniwan na kami. Ako ang nagpapaaral sa mga anak ko at wala na akong balak balikan pa ung taong tatay ng mga anak ko sa papel lang. andito ako sa abroad at hindi ko alam kung nasan na ung taong un.
We are in TRIAL STAGE sa annulment namin. Hindi ako nag appear sa court from the start sa aming case. Gusto ko lang pong malaman if needed pa po ba ang perma ko kung sakaling ma approved na ang annulment namin Or maa approved po ba ang annulment kung hindi ako peperma?
salamat po
Sir i just want to ask how can i file annulment with my husband? 5 years n kming di nagsasama..anu po ung pwde kong gawin at san ko po to file civil weeding po kmi..tnx
to all of you mga Sir,
Nagkaroon ako ng relasyon sa isang babae noong 2011 at kami ay nagkaanak.
Noong year 2000, nagduda ako sa aking asawa na may karelasyon sya na kanyang paulit ulit na itinanggi sa akong pag uusisa. Mahal ko asawa ko, pero ang pagdududa ko nga matagal at kawalan ng tiwala sa kanya ang ang udyok sa akin upang mag mahal ng iba.
ang pagdududa ko ay dinala ko hangang ngayon. Nadiskubre ng asawa ko ang relasyon ko sa iba at ito ay inamin ko. Sa pag amin ko, inamin nya rin na totoo ang suspetsa ko.
gusto ko na pong makipaghiwalay sa kanya. Sapat po bang dahilan ang pareho naming pagkakasala?
Helllo po

Atty. how to cancel a petition for declaration of nullity of marriage due to reconciliation.
what are the procedures? do you have sample forms?
thanks.
A good Day po. Atty.
Ako po ay 20yrs ng kasal sa Husband ko. Pero sa loob ng mga taon na yan tinitiis ko lang ang ugali nya na Nagger at ugaling makasarili dahil sa 6 na mga anak ko. 3 ang college 2 High school at 1 Elementary Pero hanggang ngayun ay ganun pa rin ang ugali nya at mas lumala pa. Gov. employee ang asawa ko. Meron po akong pinapatakbong maliit na negotio at madalas na din kami magtalo dahil gusto nya sya lahat ang dapat nasusunod. Ang Atm salary nya ay sya ang humahawak pero maliit nalang ang pumapasok dahil marami syang loan. Sa mga nagdaang panahon hinahanapan nya ako ng pera kung saan na daw napunta ang capital ng negotio ko. Duon lahat ako kumukuha ng pang gastos sa mga studiante ko at mga bayaran sa mga hulugan. Nagalit sya sa akin at gusto nya ng bawiin ang pera na pinapaikot ko sa negitio. Dahil sya nalang daw daw ang maghahandle at ihahanap nya ng ibang mapagkakatiwalaan. Hangang sa umalis nalang ako sa bahay namin dahil hindi ko na kaya ang pananalita nya ant panunumbat nya sa akin, ngayun pinag bibintangan naman ako na may kabit ako.
Marami pa ang mga ginagawa nya saken aside sa mga nasabi ko pati nga asawa ng kapatid ko at kapatid ko pinagbantaan nya na kasi tinutulungan ako at duon ako tumutuloy sa kanila. ang asawa ng kapatid ko din kasi ang katulong ko sa pagdadala ng maliit na negotio ko. Pagpapautang sa mga tindahan at ang bayaw ko babae ang taga singil. Ok naman ang takbo ng negotio wala naman problema para sa akin kaya lang ang husband ko masyado nagdududa kung saan na daw ang pera eh. halos duon ko lahat kinkuha ang mga expenses ng 6 ko anak at mga amortizations. Meron naman syan sariling negtio hinahandle Motorparts and Accesories at sya lang ang humahawak hindi ako nakikialam sa benta nya or sa mga decision nya. Pinag iinitan nya yung hinhandle ko negotio at pinagdududahan na ako na baka daw nilustay ko na sa lalaki ko. Alam ng mga anak ko lahat ng nangyayari sila na nga mismo nagsasabi na layasan ko daw ang ama nila. Nagkasakit na rin rin ako dahil sa konsomisyon ko sa ugali nya napaka strikto. At ang mga pananalita at mga txt nya sa akin na halos natotorture na ang utak ko. Kaya ngayun umabot na sa sukdulan hindi ko na kaya ang mga pinagdaan ko sa kanya kaya gusto ko na mag file ng Petition for Legal Separation. Possible po ba ito?
I Hope may Laban at Pag Asa ako. Thank you po sa Response.
