convalidation - Opis:
- State legal regulation in Poland as well as Canon Law perceive in marriage an exclusive partnership of man and woman ordered toward starting a family. Among the essential properties of marriage prevails a consensus that it cannot be dissolved for any reason other than death. Medical death criteria, improved through years, constitute help to deter-mine legal status of a person and, thus, to assess existence or non-existence of marriage bond. Medical death diagnosis and then issuing death certificate by proper state office, brings about an instant dissolution of a marriage in both legal systems and, thus, grants the other person widower status which in turn allows him/her entering another marriage. There are some cases, however, when the spouse is long-term absent and there’s no contact with him/her and the other spouse willing to settle his/her legal status appeals to the court to declare presumed death of the missing spouse. She/he can do so in both legal systems. The deciding factor is long-term absence of the spouse combined with lack of contact. Confirmation of presumed death issued by court and/or local ordinary is declaratory in nature. It confirms that death could be highly probable reason of missing the person. Though the course of the trial and its sentence seem to be equal in both legal systems, yet through thorough analysis it may be noted that there are significant discrepancies regarding legal status of a widower as far as possible revoking the legal consequences of the confirmation issued is concerned. State legislation stipulates that in case of finding the missing spouse, his/her marriage cannot be con-validated, because the law does not envisage such a possibility. Even if the spouse, following the declaration of presumed death, had not entered another marriage and would want to reunite with the found spouse, the law enables them to do so only in the way of another marriage. In case of Canon Law, following recovery of the presumably death spouse, his/her marriage is legally validated. Marriage bond is unique and durable, and it regains its power even if the widower, after obtaining the declaration of presumed death of his/her spouse from the local ordinary, entered another marriage. In that case is states that the new marriage had not been validly ratified, even though it was entered in good faith (presumed death of the spouse).
