Re: annulment/child support/adultery

In an adultery case you have to show proof of the relationshiop which must have been committed in a scandalous circumstances. In nullity, you have to show proof of the psychological incapacity of your husband to perform his marital obligation. Yes, you can sue your husband even for support. This support petition can be filed simultaneous with the civil case for nullity. Thanks
