Matrimonial Dissolution

I have read few pages from a book, which is written by Jim Lopez, its all about Rules of Disengagement, The Law on Annulment of Marriage. I will share with you here few chapters and situations that can give you good informations.

Matrimonial dissolution is a fascinating field of law. It involves the study of a perilous voyage from the chapel to the court, from whispered poetry to vociferous prose, from the altar to the gallows, from marriages made in heaven to annulments hatched in hell --- the transformation of love into hate or vice-versa remains one of life's imponderables.

Louis Nizer once wrote, "A divorce is not the death of a marriage; it is a death certificate for a marriage already dead. The courts merely provide a decent burial."

Love match often ends in a war game. Marriage starts with a profusion of "sweet nothings" and ends with the couple saying nothing sweet to each other.

I was so surprised to know that many are filing for annulment of marriage, some stay just for the sake of the kids, but in reality eventhough they say that it is more difficult for the children to stay in a house or a home that is no longer field with love and respect. Some say that it is better that they have their own lives than being hating each other and nothing is resolved.

There are two most popular remedies to Dissolve Marriage:
a. Action for Annulment
b. Declaration of Nullity of Marriage

Here in the Philippines, there is no divorce, but there are Rules to consider or the Rules of Disengagement.
