What is Bigamy Case Analysis: Odtuhan v. Alagon about?

1) The respondent married Modina and subsequently married Alagon without annulling his first marriage. Alagon filed a case for bigamy against the respondent. 2) The court held that a judicial declaration of nullity is required before contracting a subsequent marriage, otherwise it constitutes bigamy. Parties cannot judge the nullity of a marriage themselves. 3) The respondent is liable for bigamy because he married Alagon before obtaining a judicial declaration of nullity of his first marriage to Modina.
