23. Absolute nullity of marriage. Sham marriage

Summary/Abstract: What distinguishes a sham marriage is the simulated, false nature of the expression of consent, which is not made for the purpose of founding a family, but in order to obtain the benefits that the conclusion of that marriage would secure for one or both spouses. The nature or unlawful character of the real purpose pursued, as well as whether only one of the spouses or both had motives unrelated to founding a family, are irrelevant as regards the existence of the ground for nullity.
