ABOUT THE COURSE

This course will help you understand the rulings of the Supreme Court on the implementation of Article 36 of the Family Code which media popularized by calling the process “annulment.” 

Specifically, the course will answer the following questions: 

  • How did the Supreme Court decide on the first case involving Article 36? 

  • How can a medical examination rather than a psychological or psychiatric evaluation assist a practitioner in an Article 36 matter? 

  • What is NOT psychological incapacity? 

  • Should you retain the services of a psychologist, or depend only on the testimony of your client and her witnesses? 

  • What were the facts and the circumstances that persuaded the Supreme Court to allow a declaration of nullity of a marriage under Article 36?
