Practice question
A spouse proves only that the couple recently argued and now dislikes living together, without evidence of the required incapacity existing at celebration. Does Tan-Andal make dissatisfaction alone sufficient?
- Yes; any argument automatically voids marriage.
- Yes; mutual dislike necessarily equals incapacity.
- Yes; the parties may privately declare 36 satisfied.
- No; because 36 can never apply without a criminal conviction.
- No; the required serious incapacity and temporal link still must be established.
