Until now they never ever have a communication... i dont if if it was a hearsay to say that her husband is with the girl or something.. we got nothing to prove if her husband is with another girl but one thing for sure, He aint got no communications after 6 months he left until now. Any thoughts on this? Thanks Much and Best Regards. Good Day Attorney,

We got married 2 weeks before he left for japan,he was sponsored by my mother-in-law. He's coming home for vacation only for 10 dys each year. In 2002 he went home secretly together with a japanese lady who at that time he's living in with. One of their relative was concerned enough to tell me about it. While living with that girl he stopped sending financial support to us, and that is when the problem arised. I decided to work to support the needs of my son. Eventually his relationship with that japanese lady didn't worked. Then he met another japanese girl with whom he had a child after 5 yrs of living together. Now, last thing I heard, he's in jail due to drug related case. It has been 11 years of being separated. I think it's about time to start a new life and have a family. Is it possible to file for an annulment case and on what grounds. By the way, I'm currently working in Qatar and he is jailed in Japan, he's also using a different name (passport, visa, etc). Need your advice on this matter. Thank you and hope to hear from you soon. Dear Atty,

I got married last October 2000, I was 19 then and my husband is 18. We got married 2 weeks before he left for japan,he was sponsored by my mother-in-law. He’s coming home for vacation only for 10 dys each year. In 2002 he went home secretly together with a japanese lady who at that time he’s living in with. One of their relative was concerned enough to tell me about it. While living with that girl he stopped sending financial support to us, and that is when the problem arised. I decided to work to support the needs of my son. Eventually his relationship with that japanese lady didn’t worked. Then he met another japanese girl with whom he had a child after 5 yrs of living together. Now, last thing I heard, he’s in jail due to drug related case. It has been 11 years of being separated. I think it’s about time to start a new life and have a family.

Is it possible to file for an annulment case and on what grounds. By the way, I’m currently working in Qatar and he is jailed in Japan, he’s also using a different name (passport, visa, etc). Need your advice on this matter. Thank you and hope to hear from you soon.

I would like to ask if my reasons are enough grounds for filing a legal separation. I am 23 yrs of age and my husband is 24. We already have a kid. Even before we got married he is physically and verbally abusing me. His family also doesn't like me. They fabricate stories that worsen the situation. My husband also keeps on saying that he doesn't love me any longer. Would that be a ground for psychological incapacity? Do you think I will have a good case? Hoping that you can help me from my problem. Thank you so much. Good pm attorney. I would like to ask if my reasons are enough grounds for filing a legal separation.

Insanity is a ground for annulment, but it must be shown to be existent at the time of marriage (and, besides, it is subject to ratification by cohabitation). It could also be used to support the ground of psychological incapacity, but such must also be shown to be existent at the time of marriage and must appear to be incurable (among other requirements).
