The Contradictory Principle in the Briefer Matrimonial Process Before the Bishop

Summary/Abstract: The briefer matrimonial process before the bishop is a new form of the nullity marriage. The process is carried out whenever the petition is proposed by both spouses or by one of them, with the consent of the other or circumstance of things and persons recur, with substantiating testimonies and records, which do not demand a more accurate inquiry or investigation, and which render the nullity manifest. However, the truth about the validity of marriage can only be obtained if the legal norms and the way of proceeding are observed.One of the basic principles is contradictoriness. It refers to the parties and assumes the existence of two contradictory theses. In the context of the briefer process, there is a contradiction between what the parties claim about the nullity of their marriage and the position of the Church defending the validity of marriage through the defender of the bond occurring in the process.
