Bigamy in the Philippines
« on: June 12, 2010, 03:41:38 AM »
Philippine Bar Exam Review

Abe, married to Liza, contracted another marriage with Connie in Singapore. Thereafter, Abe and Connie returned to the Philippines and lived as husband and wife in the hometown of Abe in Calamba, Laguna.

Question: Can Abe be prosecuted for bigamy?

SUGGESTED ANSWER:
1) No, Abe may not be prosecuted for bigamy since the bigamous marriage was contracted or solemnized in Singapore, hence such violation is not one of those where the Revised Penal Code, under Art. 2 thereof, may be applied extraterritorially. The general rule on territoriality of criminal law governs the situation.

If I'm in the place of Lisa, ilabay ko na si Connie kon ari ipon sa  akong balay
    and remind her, this is not Singapore, we're back in Phils.
    and monogamous marriage is still being uphold.  ::)

How  about  if  a  man  and  woman were  married  in the  Philippines  and  the  same  couple got married  again in the US and  got  divorced, will the  latest  dissolution of  marriage  supersedes  the  first one when  they  decide  to  go  back  and  retire in  the  Philippines?  Will  they  be  declared  as  singles ? Just  curious?
