    Rosanna filed for nullity of her marriage to Mario, claiming psychological incapacity on his part. The trial court granted the nullity but the court of appeals reversed, finding the psychiatric evaluation of Mario unreliable since he was not interviewed. The Supreme Court then ruled the marriage void, finding Mario psychologically incapacitated from complying with essential marital obligations based on his diagnosed narcissistic antisocial personality disorder, substance abuse disorder, and drug addiction.

    Quintero, Lorein R

    DOCTRINE:
    Psychological incapacity is neither a mental incapacity nor a personal disorder that must
    be proven through expert opinion.

    FACTS:
    Rosanna filed for a petition for declaration of nullity of marriage on the ground of Mario's
    psychological incapacity to comply with his essential marital obligations to her. Mario
    was diagnosed with narcissistic antisocial personality disorder and substance abuse
    disorder with psychotic features.
    The RTC voided the marriage. The CA reversed RTC's ruling on the ground that the
    psychiatric evaluation of Mario is "unscientific and unreliable" since he was not
    interviewed.

    ISSUE: WON the marriage is void due to psychological incapacity?

    RULING:
    YES. The Court finds Mario psychologically incapacitated to comply with his essential
    marital obligations. Hence, the drug addiction is a ground for legal separation and will
    not prevent the court from voiding the marriage, this should be enough to render the
    marriage void under under Article 36 of the Family Code.
