N ullity of Marriage - This action can be filed by a married person to restore the parties to
the status of unmarried persons, as if they were never married. Certain conditions must be
met before the Court will consider the marriage as void or voidable. Regardless of how the
case proceeds, the Petitioner, the person who initiated the case, will have the burden to
prove to the Court that one of the conditions for nullity has been met before the Court will
grant the nullity of marriage. The Court can also issue orders regarding property and debt
division, custody and support.
