they do not have plans on their marriage since they were too young, wild, and free though they are in
the legal age. They went for a tour after some time. The ship they were boarding unfortunately crashed
to an ice berg, damaging the ship. The ship was gradually sinking. It only takes an hour to sink
completely. Driven with fears that they will no longer see each other, they decided want to get married.
However, they do not possess a marriage license. It was not a problem if they have the marriage
license because there was a priest in the ship. As good citizen and know some of the law on marriage,
what can you advice to Jack and Rose as to their marriage.
36-40. Joseph, an American and Maria, a Filipina were married for 2 years. However, they failed to
consummate their marriage because Joseph does not want to have carnal knowledge with Julie. As a
result, Julie filed with the Family Court for a declaration of nullity of marriage on a ground of psychological
incapacity to perform Joseph’s marital obligations. However, Joseph argues that he was suffering from
tuberculosis, which makes him difficult to perform his marital task. He was examined by qualified
physicians, and it appeared that he had been suffering from tuberculosis since then. Will their marriage
be declared void?
