PETITION
WITH ALL DUE RESPECT, Petitioner, by counsel, to this Honorable Court, respectfully states:
1. Petitioner, Lily Aldrin, is of legal age, Filipino citizen and a resident of NY Street, Mandaluyong City, where
she may be served with summons and other court processes;
2. The Respondent Ted Mosby, is likewise of legal age, Filipino citizen, and a resident of Tribecca Avenue,
Mandaluyong City where he may be served with summons and other court processes;
3. Petitioner Lily Aldrin and Respondent Ted Mosby (referred herein as Parties) entered into a contract of
marriage on December 1, 2010 at the Office of the City Mayor of Mandaluyong, solemnized by Hon. Kobe
Bryant. A copy of their marriage certificate is hereto attached as Annex “A”;
4. The parties begot two children. Copies of their children’s certificates of Live Birth is hereto attached as Annex
"B" and "C", respectively;
5. Petitioner and Respondent were childhood friends, growing up in the same area and were schoolmates during
elementary. They went their separate ways from high school to college and only met again upon their batch
reunion in a bar in Mandaluyong.;
6. The Petitioner and Respondent became romantically involved immediately after the reunion through the efforts
of their common friends;
7. After a few more dates, Petitioner got pregnant;
8. When the Respondent's parents came to know that herein Petitioner got pregnant, they pressured the
Respondent to marry Petitioner. Likewise, the relatives of the Petitioner put pressure on her by warning her
not to put their family in a humiliating situation;
9. Even before their marriage, the Petitioner had observed that the Respondent displayed irresponsibility to the
extent that he oftentimes would not care for her emotions and feelings. However, she hoped that the
Respondent would change once they get married, Petitioner gave in to the pressure and married Respondent
even though she did not know him too well;
10. At the time of the celebration of their marriage, Respondent was suffering from psychological incapacity and
not truly cognitive of his marital obligations. The facts and circumstances being that:
a. During their relationship before their marriage, Respondent was a party boy and a "chickboy" always
out and about to the extent of meeting new girls every night;
b. Respondent showed signs of irresponsibility as a husband and father and would rather go out with peers
until wee hours of the morning only to be found passed out on the sidewalk outside of bars. He would
rather spend time with his "barkada" and spend his money on girls he meets at the bar. Their children
were only attended to by the Mother of the Petitioner;
c. Respondent is also very dependent on his mother that all his decisions would depend greatly on the
affirmation of his mother. Ted is unable to decide on his own. His decision to marry was only because
of the persuasion he received from his parents. Heated arguments occured everytime a decision is at
issue since the decision of Ted's mother had to be followed at all times;
d. Respondent is also a habitual liar. Ted lied plenty of times during their marriage. Some lies are so grave
such as the instance when Ted lied that he had gotten a job as a school teacher when in fact he was not
able to do so. Ted would tell Lily that he is going to find a job when in fact he spends the afternoon
drinking and meeting other girls. Ted got angry when he was asked by Lily about the matter and told
her that he was happier and free before they got married;
e. Even if the parties have their own house, Ted would often leave their house and stay with his friends
for weeks due to the fact that, allegedly, he felt 'sakal' or suffocated in their own house. Leaving the
children with Lily's mother;
f. The parties never even had sexual intercourse for more than a year already and rarely eat together as
a family. The environment was not a pleasant one and not ideal for a family with children;
g. Ted left the family and has never set foot in their house for almost 5 years when he went with his
parents abroad (Ukraine). Without any hesitation and second thought he left the family without even
consulting Lily nor even caring for whatever the children might think or feel;
11. Lily tried convincing Ted to change for the better for the sake of the family and their growing children and to
return to them as a husband and a father to fulfill their marital obligations but such pleas fell on deaf ears as
Ted was not willing to be a husband and a father and does not want to live in a peaceful union with Lily;
12. Petitioner sought the help of a clinical psychologist, Dr. Barney Stinson, who conducted a psychological
evaluation on the ability of Ted to discharge and cope with the essential obligations of marriage. Dr. Stinson
found that Ted was pyschologically incapacitated to perform the essential marital obligations resulting from
his immaturity, which affected his sense of rational judgment and responsibility;
13. As found out by Dr. Stinson, Ted’s behavioral patterns were affected during his early developmental years
where he was raised and exposed in an unfavorable environment;
14. The psychiatric illness of the defendant is serious and incurable since it is deeply rooted in his personality and
that such illness originated from parental over indulgence or over protection especially coming from the
 mother, parent of the opposite sex. The fact that his father was an OFW assigned in Kathmandu, the lack of a
father figure helped the illness develop. The absence of a father figure during his growing years deprived him
of the guidance on how to be a proper husband and father which was apparent in his marriage;
15. These traits reveal that he has psychological incapacity under Art. 36 of the Family Code of the Philippines and
is medically labeled “Histrionic Personality Disorder with Dependent Personality Disorder” relating to severe
inadequacy that renders him psychologically incapacitated to perform the duties and responsibilities of a
husband and father;
16. The psychological make-up of petitioner and respondent is explained in greater detail in the
Clinical Assessment Report (“Report”) dated 25 December 2016, a copy of which is attached as “ANNEX D”;
17. That the psychological incapacity on the part of the defendant was already existing and manifest even before
the celebration of the marriage, but Petitioner thought it will disappear during the marriage; however, it
subsisted and got even worse;
18. That said psychological defect or illness is grave, serious and incurable;
19. Petitioner is filing this petition to declare her marriage a nullity. Respondent showed no concern for his
obligation towards his family in violation of Art. 68 of the New Family Code which provides that husband and
wife are obliged to live together, observe mutual love, respect and fidelity and render mutual help and support.
Petitioner is also filing this case under Art. 36 of the same Code as the respondent manifested apparent
personality disorder and psychological dysfunction, i.e. his lack of effective sense of rational judgment and
responsibility by being psychologically immature and failing to perform his responsibilities as a husband; and
20. That the parties did not acquire any property and there are no known creditors who will be prejudiced by the
declaration of nullity of their marriage should the Honorable court grants this petition, hereto attached as
Certificate of Non-Property, “Annex E”.

PRAYER

WHEREFORE, it is most respectfully prayed that judgment be rendered declaring the nullity of the marriage of
Petitioner with the Respondent pursuant to Article 36, and the annulment of the same marriage based on Article 45
(5) of the Family Code of the Philippines.

Other reliefs and equitable under the premises are also prayed for.
