B. Would you recommend legal separation for the couple? Why or why not?
Personally, yes I would highly recommend legal separation because this case is
a\obviously not a healthy relationship anymore, for both of them and especially their
children. While other people may think that legal separation is immoral, I believe that this
is a right and choice that we all deserve if the terms and reasons are valid.

Amber Heard, 30, was granted a temporary restraining order against her
estranged husband Johnny Depp. The actress submitted a photo, reportedly from
Saturday, of a large bruise around her eye as evidence he hit her. Heard claims Depp
offered to buy her silence but she instead made the decision to file for divorce two days
later. Heard has claimed cocaine and booze turned Depp into a violent monster, and in
court documents she states she was the victim of multiple domestic incidents during
B. Would you recommend legal separation for the couple? Why or why not?
Yes, I would highly recommend legal separation because I personally believe that no one
deserves to be in a relationship fearing the other. As someone who comes from a family who
also experiences domestic violence, I can say that this type of relationship greatly affects the
whole family, especially the children. And the longer this type of issue is ignored, the more it
worsens.
This is a difficult question, primarily because there are so many variations. If you have absolutely limited
resources, you could file the petition as a pauper litigant (for filing fees) and seek free legal aid (discussed
below). If you engage the services of a private lawyer, the entire process may cost you at least Fifty Thousand
Pesos (PhP50,000).
Are Filipinos ready or acceptable of the concept of annulment? Why or why not?
This is a personal decision that should not be taken lightly. While divorce is not allowed in the Philippines, the
fact that the law provides for annulment means that there are meritorious instances that would justify the
annulment of marriage.
Some Filipinos want and do get married outside the Philippines. Theres nothing really strange with this,
except when they say that the reason is for convenience in getting a divorce abroad. This is strange for two
main reasons:
1. Divorce is not recognized under Philippine laws. If youre a Filipino, it doesnt matter where you get a
divorce: such divorce is invalid/void in the Philippines. This is because under the nationality principle (Art. 15,
Civil Code), all Filipinos where they may be in the world are bound by Philippine laws on family rights and
2. Marriage is supposed to be forever. From an idealistic non-legal standpoint, the sole reason for marriage
should be love; the kind of love that transcends time and withstands any impediments that life throws our way.
From a legal perspective, on the other hand, no less than the Philippine Constitution (Art. XV, Sec. 2) and
the Family Code(Art. 1) expressly characterize marriage as the foundation of the family and an inviolable social
institution.
