MICHELLE JANE A. YANG
Petitioner,
Special Proceeding No. 14344
IN RE: PETITION FOR HABEAS
CORPUS OF THE MINOR
ANGEL A. YANG
LANCE AIDEN L. OLIVES
Respondent.
x-------------------------------x
PETITION
PETITIONER, by counsel, respectfully submits that:
1. Petitioner is the mother of the minor ANGEL A. YANG who
was born out of the valid marriage between petitioner and
respondent Lance Aiden L. Olives;
2. The petitioner and respondent have been separated de facto
since 2019;
3. The minor has been living with the petitioner in the house of
the latter’s mother and the minor’s maternal grandmother
since the petitioner and the respondent separated;
4. Sometime in January 2020, the respondent, unknown to the
petitioner, went to the house where the minor was residing
and abducted the latter and has kept her incommunicado and
out of petitioner’s reach;
5. Being below seven (7) years of age, custody of the minor is
naturally presumed to belong to the petitioner, as her mother.
Consequently, respondent’s refusal to allow petitioner to
regain custody over the minor is unlawful and unjustified.
WHEREFORE, petitioner respectfully prays that a Writ of
Habeas Corpus be issued directing respondent to make a return
showing his legal authority to detain the minor child, subject of this
Page 1 of 38
petition, and thereafter, present the minor child personally before
the Court on a date and time it chooses.

HERMIONE GRANGER - POTTER,
Petitioner,
-versus- Civil Case No. 69069
For: Declaration of Nullity
of Marriage under Art. 36
of Family Code
HARRY JAMES POTTER,
Respondent,
x- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - x
PETITION
COMES NOW petitioner, through the undersigned counsel
and to this Honorable Court, respectfully alleges:
1. That petitioner HERMIONE GRANGER - POTTER is of
legal age, married, Filipino and resident of 123 Quezon Avenue,
Miputak, Dipolog City;
2. That respondent HARRY JAMES POTTER is likewise of
legal age, married, Filipino and presently residing at 987
Estaka, Dipolog City;
Page 9 of 38
3. That petitioner and respondent celebrated their marriage on
January 3, 2018 before the Dipolog City Cathedral, certified true
copy of their Marriage Certificate is attached and made integral
part hereof as Annex “A”;
4. That petitioner and respondent have no children. They
have neither a written agreement executed before the marriage to
govern their property relations nor have any community property
acquired during their marriage. They have no debts;
5. That petitioner met the respondent sometime in August 2017
in City of Dipolog City. Their romance culminated in a marriage
before the priest of Dipolog City Cathedral;
6. That in a short span of time they had been together, this is
the time which the petitioner describes as a period where the
respondent’s instability, psychological or otherwise, showed up;
7. That other instances, wherein such instability could be
reasonably inferred are as follows:
a. After their marriage, the respondent gave up his job
at Hogwarts University as a Professor without justifiable reason;
b. That petitioner tried to explain to him that it was his
responsibility to support her but respondent would ignore and
shout at her, making the petitioner the breadwinner of the family;
c. That the respondent is a compulsive gambler;
d. He is a womanizer;
e. He resorts to drug and alcohol abuse during their
cohabitation;
f. That the respondent does not want to have a child with the
petitioner because according to him it will just cause burden for
him;
Page 10 of 38
g. That parties would fight even for the smallest things
through not due to the fault of the petitioner, and frequently, the
respondent would always apologize to the petitioner, but later on,
he will repeat his quarrelsome and troublesome ways;
h. He prefers to hang out with friends and with her flings
instead of being with petitioner;
8. That during their honeymoon period, things were running
smoothly between them, but not on the succeeding week, when the
respondent’s instability started to manifest clearly to the
petitioner. Their relationship only lasted until December 2019;
9. That some other manifestations of the psychological and
emotional disturbances on the part of the respondent can be cited
as follows:
a. That there were many times when the respondent never
even kissed the petitioner. Respondent would not even look at her
whenever they spoke with each other. She was always the one, who
holds or hugs him so that they may become closer to each other but
every time she tries to be closer to him, he simply had to always
turn his back to her. This is causing so much unbearable emotional
and psychological pain on the part of the petitioner;
b. That petitioner told the respondent that they should
discuss what went wrong between them and hopefully they could
work it out again. The petitioner verbalized all of the things she
had noticed and felt, knowing that everything works out when there
is an open communication. She told him about the lack of passion,
respect and romance in their relationship. The respondent just
ignored her pleas;
c. That respondent began hurting the petitioner physically by
throwing things on her and shoving her around;
Page 11 of 38
d. That respondent did not stop gambling and using alcohol
and drugs;
e. The respondent abandoned the petitioner and left to be with
another woman. Since December 2019, the respondent did not
return nor tried to communicate with the petitioner. The petitioner
on several instances, tried to reach the respondent through his
relatives and friends but to no avail.
10. That the petitioner already gave up on the respondent after
trying to give all her efforts just to save her marriage to a man who,
as shown in the foregoing, is not cognitive to and psychologically
incapable of performing, his basic marital covenants to herein
petitioner;
11. That further, respondent’s psychological incapacity from all
indications appears to have been manifesting at the time of the
celebration of marriage. Although said manifestations were not
then perceived, the root cause shall be proved to such an extent that
respondent could not have known the obligations he was to fulfill
or knowing them could not have validly performed them. It is of
such incapacity that respondent was unable to assume his marital
obligations;
12. That the respondent’s incapacity to fulfill his essential marital
obligations appear to be grave, incurable and deeply ingrained,
thus; warranting the issuance of the Decree of Nullity of petitioner’s
marriage with the respondent;
13. That finally, the petitioner has therefore no other recourse but
to seek judicial relief. The prospects or possibility of respondent to
reform and assume his essential marital obligations is a remote
possibility, if not a hopeless expectancy.
Page 12 of 38
PRAYER
WHEREFORE, after trial, it is respectfully prayed that this
Honorable Court rendered judgment:
1. Declaring the marriage entered into by the parties as NULL
and VOID on the ground of psychological incapacity of the
respondent;
2. Ordering the Local Civil Registrar and the National Statistics
Office to cancel in their respective Books of Marriages, the marriage
between the petitioner and the respondent.
Petitioner prays for such other relief she may be entitled to in
the premises.
