MAY D. AÑONUEVO v. INTESTATE ESTATE OF RODOLFO G. JALANDONI

This case has been cited 1 times or more.

2014-01-22
PEREZ, J.
We uphold the reversal by the CA of the decision of the trial court.  Quite recently, in Añonuevo v. Intestate Estate of Rodolfo G. Jalandoni,[28] we said, citing precedents, that: While a marriage certificate is considered the primary evidence of a marital union, it is not regarded as the sole and exclusive evidence of marriage. Jurisprudence teaches that the fact of marriage may be proven by relevant evidence other than the marriage certificate.  Hence, even a person's birth certificate may be recognized as competent evidence of the marriage between his parents.
