The House population and family relations committee on Tuesday approved an unnumbered substitute bill reinstituting divorce as an alternative mode for the dissolution of marriage.
The said bill provides that a divorce petition will undergo a judicial process where proof of the cause for the divorce is established and that the marriage has completely collapsed without any possibility of reconciliation.
Further, a cooling-off period of 60 days after the filing of the divorce petition is provided. During the said period, the judge is required to exert earnest efforts to reconcile the parties. “The approval of the substitute bill on absolute divorce for eventual plenary debates assures that the country is now at the threshold of joining the universality of absolute divorce in the community of nations,” Lagman added.
The divorce petition, however, will be dismissed at any time during the proceedings if the parties agree to reconcile.
