A marriage is void only when it meets the provisions of this Chapter.

Only a court judgment can declare any marriage void.

A marriage which contravenes section 1449, section 1450, section 1452, or [sic] section 1458 is void.

In order to request a court to adjudge a marriage void, an interested person may request a public prosecutor to make such a request to the court.

A void marriage creates no relationship between the husband and wife in regard to property.

When a court judgment declares any marriage void, the property owned or acquired by either spouse, whether before or after the marriage registration, as well as its fruits, shall remain belonging to that spouse. As for the property which has been acquired through a will or gratuitous gift when the will or gift letter specifies that it be for both spouses, it shall be halved for each spouse.
