Form 22: Petition for Annulment of Marriage

REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES


REGIONAL TRIAL COURT
___ Judicial Region
Regional Trial Court
Branch ________
Pasig City, Metro Manila

JOHN C. FABON
Petitioner,
-versus- CIVIL CASE NO. _____
JUDICIAL DECLARATION OF NULLITY OF MARRIAGE
MARILEN MORAN-FABON
Respondent.
x—————————————————————x

AFFIDAVIT

THE PARTIES
Petitioner, John C. Fabon (John for brevity) is of legal age, Filipino and presently residing at Blk-20, Lot-5, Acacia
Homes Pasig City;

Respondent, Marilen Moran-Fabon (Len for brevity) is likewise of legal age, Filipino and is last known by the
Petitioner to be residing at Block11, Lot 87, ACM Woods Homes, Pasig City, where she may be served by
notices, orders and processes of the Honorable Court.

NATURE OF THE PETITION


In this present Petition, the Petitioner prays of this Honorable Court to declare as null and void her marriage to
Respondent on the ground of the latter’s psychological incapacity.

The following pertinent and relevant Family Code provisions are the bases in the treatise of this Petition:

Art. 36. A marriage contracted by any party who, at the time of the celebration, was psychologically
incapacitated to comply with the essential marital obligations of marriage, shall likewise be void and even if
such incapacity becomes manifest only after its solemnization.

Art. 68. The husband and wife are obliged to live together, observe mutual love, respect and fidelity, and
render mutual help and support.
Art. 72. When one of the spouses neglects his or her duties to the conjugal union or commits acts, which tend
to bring danger, dishonor or injury to the other or the Family, the aggrieved party may apply to the court for
relief.

FACTS OF THE CASE

The classic love affair between Mr. Jay Felizardo and Ms. Marilen Morales started when the latter was
introduced to the petitioner through her cousin Pia. She and Jay were workmates in National Panasonic. What
started as a simple acquaintance was followed by an intense courtship; Jay was immediately attracted to her
that soon enough he was deeply engrossed with her. Jay would often bring Marilen to and fro in her place of
work; he visited her in their house almost on a daily basis. These adorable actuations of Jay eventually led to a
romantic affair between him and the respondent. Not for long, their secret liaison resulted in sexual intimacies
between the two, not just once, but on several occasions. These intimate moments that Jay and Marilen
shared together in the private perfumed parlor, so to speak, resulted in the unexpected pregnancy of the
latter. This turn of events changed their lives forever.

The fruit of their lovely labor was discussed by them with their respective families. Both families agreed that
since Jay and Marilen are gainfully employed, they should now tie the knot for the sake of their soon-to-be
offspring and transformed their amorous relationship into a marital bliss. Needless to say, Marilen’s pregnancy
hastened their marriage that was held on the 28th of May 1998 in a church in Taytay, Rizal. Most members of
their respective families attended the marital ceremony. The first stages of their married life were full of
happiness and excitement, as they awaited Marilen’s first delivery. She and Jay lived with her family after the
wedding and her family was cordial towards him. As time passed, a second child came, and they eventually
moved in to a new house. It was a smooth sailing for the newly-weds at first. But a gradual changed in what
seemed to be a happy union loomed in the horizon.

Their marriage, however short-lived, blessed them with two children. At the time of their marital union Jay
continued working in National Panasonic whiles his now wife Marilen worked in the Land Bank of the
Philippines. As earlier pointed out, the marriage seemed happy in the beginning until one day the respondent
asked him to go abroad supposedly because their incomes were not enough but much to the opposition of the
petitioner. Jay did not like the idea of either him or his wife going abroad to earn more money at the expense
of the family being separated; according to him they could live on their meager incomes for as long as the
family stays together. But because of the insistence of his wife Marilen to go abroad and to escape from her
pestering, he eventually gave in to her wish and flew to Dubai as an overseas worker in 2004. He worked as a
CNC operator in that far away country known for its unforgiving weather.

Jay endured working hard in the harsh climate of Dubai for more than a year while sending money religiously
to Marilen way back in Manila. Everything was normal in the beginning of their new marital arrangement – Jay
working in Dubai and Marilen working in Manila at the Land Bank of the Philippines.

They communicated constantly through texting and phone calls. But this was not for long, what appeared to
be a happy arrangement at first, took an unexpected turn. Jay noticed a sudden change of Marilen’s behavior:
the frequent texts that she regularly sent to him and the phone calls that she often made became far and
infrequent. There were times that when he called her up, Maricen would simply drop the call. On certain
occasions that he would call her late at night, she was not still in the house and nowhere to be found. And
whenever they would finally talk on the phone, she was always in a hurry to stop the conversation arguing that
that the international calls was expensive even if it was Jay who was paying for them anyway. Making the
situation worse, the respondent even prevented their two children from talking to him on the phone. But to
the biggest surprise of Jay, she had the gall to ask him for a marital separation on the phone! She made it clear
to Jay that she was ending their marriage right on the very moment they were conversing on the phone. Jay
was at a loss on Marilen’s strange new actuations towards him and her seeming loss of affection towards him.
The new sad development in his married life drove him to tears and he almost lost his mind figuring out what
could be the reason for his wife’s drastic decision. Did I do something terribly wrong? This was the nagging
question at the back of his tortured mind. He could not think of anything he had done to merit such a cold
treatment from the lady she dearly loved. He however recalled what his childhood friend, Froilan Bagares, told
him about the rumors of Marilen having entertained another man. This man was often seen driving off Marilen
after work. Despite these rumors, Jay still continued to believe that his wife still loved him, ever loyal to him,
cared for their children and valued the sanctity of their young marriage. He was wrong.

Jay went home to the Philippines in 2005 in order to find the real score and hoped to save his marriage to
Marilen. His main task of returning to the Philippines was precisely to fix their marital union he dearly valued
and for the sake of their children. To his consternation, Marilen frankly told him that they part ways and from
then on would lead separate lives. But Jay, hopeful as he had always been, requested the help of his relatives
in the hope that Marilen would take a 360 degree turn on her drastic decision to split up with Jay. Instead of
listening to them however, she dropped the bomb, so to speak, on him in front of their close relatives: Jay’s
parents and sibling and Marilen’s mother. Marilen made her feelings loud and clear to Jay that she had no
intention anymore to patch things up with him. She further added that she no longer loved him, hence, the
eventual separation. That was the last straw for him, and has from then on learned to accept the faith of his
marriage to his once beloved wife. Right there, he decided to go back working abroad. He presently has a
girlfriend and he also religiously continues to give financial support to his two children. And since then, the
petitioner and the respondent had been living separate lives.

WHEREFORE, premises considered, it is respectfully prayed that after trial, judgment be rendered by this
Honorable Court declaring the marriage between the Petitioner and the Respondent VOID AB INITIO by reason
of the psychological incapacity of the petitioner and respondent, citing Art. 36 of the Family Code.

Other reliefs just and equitable are prayed for.

In support of their DENIALS, the defendant asserts the following affirmative defenses:

3.1 The present case is a clandestine attempt on the part of the plaintiff to gain possession of property through judicial

in Bagacay, Dumaguete City, Negros Oriental, covered by OCT. No. 1122 has been the subject of a Kasulatan sa
Pagbligya sa Yuta between Pedro and Juana Tamada, plaintiff's parents, and Mario and Juanita Bulay-og, defendant's
parents, dated August 8, 1952, hereto attached as Annex “1”.

3.2 Proof of the genuiness and due execution of such Kasulatan sa Pagbaligya sa Yuta of Lot No. 20 are the following:

a. Sworn statement of Ms. Maria Junriza S. Cimeni, hereto attached as Annex “2”, stating that she was present when the
sale took place and that she also signed as witness to the Kasulatan sa Pagaligya sa Yuta notarized by Atty. Primitivo
Ruiz, with document no. 25, page no. 5, book no. X, series of 1952;

3.3 Sometime in 1953, a small house was built where defendant and her family, together with a cousin, Marvilia Serna,
Lived until Mario and Juanita Bulay-og died in March and November 1980, respectively.

3.4 In 1984, Maria went to Manila to work and left the property under the care of her cousin, Marvilia who later on
married a neighbor, Kristiano Cruz. They lived in the adjoining lot of Lot No. 20. Marvilia's Sworn Statement is hereto
attached as Annex “3”;

3.5 In 1981, Maria Bulay-og came home to Bagacay, Dumaguete to settle permanently. Planning to rebuild their house
for her and her family, she applied for the issuance of a building permit from the City of Dumaguete. Such Building
permit is hereto attached as Annex “4”;

3.6 Since 1986, Maria Bulay-og and her family have been in peaceful and undisturbed possession and occupation of the
land. It was only in April 2014, that plaintiff, Juan Tamad, suddenly claimed ownership over the said lot.

3.7 Other relevant documents supporting defendant's claim of ownership and lawful occupation over the subject
property include the following;
a. A certification issued by the City Treasurer, Mr. Marquel Peonila, stating that the realty taxes over the subject property
under the name of Mario Bulay-og have been paid by the couples for the years 1952 to 1980 and by herein defendant,
Maria Bulay-og for the years 1981 to 2016. Such certificate is hereto attached as Annex “5”

b. Real property tax receipts for the years 2014 to 2016 are also hereto attached as Annexes “6”, “7”, and “8”;

3.8 In view of the overwhelming and unequivocal evidence presented above, showing that the plaintiff has lost
ownership of Lot No. 20 Psu-01-23-456789 by virtue of a Deed of Absolute Sale executed by him in favor of the
defendant, and that plaintiff deliberately, and without just cause, refused to deliver the OCT over the said, his complaint
for accion publiciana is preposterous, hence can never prosper.

IV. COMPULSORY COUNTERCLAIM

The defendant replead the foregoing recitals by way of reference;

4.1 The filing of this case clearly baseless and malicious. For such reason, the defendant and her family has suffered
mental anguish, sleepless nights, serious anxiety and other similar injuries. The plaintiff must then be held liable to
indemnify them the amount of Fifty Thousand Pesos (Php 50,000.00) by way of moral damages;

4.2 By reason of the filing of this malicious and baseless complaint, the defendants were compelled to engage the
services of the undersigned counsel for a stipulated amount of Forty Thousand Pesos (P40,000.00) as attorney's fee and
an appearance fee of Two Thousand Five Hundred Pesos (P2,500.00) per hearing for which they should be reimbursed by
the plaintiff;

that:
1. Intervenor, a Russian but naturalized Filipino citizen, of legal age, married to Jessica
Sanchez, a Filipino citizen and a resident of Trotsky resort, Boracay Island, Philippines.

2. Herein Intervenor is the true owner of the property which is the subject of controversy

No. 11919, originally under TCT No. 12345, (hereto attached as Annex “A-1”) with an
area of five thousand square meters (5,000 sq m) located at Brgy. San Isidro, Babak

of Deeds in the Province of Davao del Norte. (copy attached as Annex” A-2”)
4. The litigants in this case, (plaintiff) as claimant and (defendant) who is in actual used
and possession of the property in question, have no legal standing of their claims on the
basis that all transactions and performances subsequent to the transaction executed
between herein Intervenor and Mr. Kobe Bryant in relation to the property in question
described in the original title TCT 12345 and in TCT 11919 is presumed to be void
considering that said property was already sold to Intervenor and now is the subject of
this complaint.

irresponsible vendor (Kobe Bryant) of the questioned property, which is the subject
matter in this case, that caused him to initiate legal remedy for the relief and recovery of
damages inflicted to his person, and bring the matter to this honorable court in a way of
intervention.

WHERFORE, it is prayed:
3. That all transactions and performances executed by the litigants in relation to the
property-in-question, including related documents in their possession shall be declared void.

4. That the litigants be ordered by this Honorable Court to voluntarily turn-over the
questioned property to the rightful owner who is the Intervenor in this case.

5. That if voluntary turn-over of the property or waiver of the claim by both plaintiff and
defendants is not possible, order be made against the litigants to pay for the damages and
other litigation expenses plus attorney’s fees in favor of the Intervenor.
6. Further it is prayed that Intervenor be granted such relief found to be consistent with law
and equity.

2. On 1 June 2007, plaintiff found a Gold Rolex Oyster watch, without knowing who its true owner is. The watch

3. Plaintiff, who claims no interest in the watch, cannot determine the conflicting claims of defendants and thus
seeks to compel defendants to interplead and litigate their several claims between themselves.

WHEREFORE, it is respectfully prayed that this Honorable Court issue an order directing defendants to
interplead with one another to determine their respective rights and claims and to allow plaintiff to recover his expenses
