Niñal v. Badayog

1) Pepito shot and killed his wife Teodulfa. 1 year and 8 months later, Pepito married Badayog without obtaining a marriage license. 2) The court ruled Pepito and Badayog's marriage was void from the beginning due to the lack of a marriage license. 3) An affidavit declaring Pepito and Badayog cohabited for 5 years was inadmissible because both parties admitted it was false, as Pepito was still married to Teodulfa during the alleged cohabitation.
