Rosario, 17 years old, and Danilo, 21 years old, both Filipino citizens, expressed their desire to marry. With the full written consent of Rosario's parents and before a duly authorized judge acting as solemnizing officer, the wedding ceremony was performed and the marriage was registered in the local civil registry. Years later, Danilo filed a petition before the Regional Trial Court to have the marriage declared void on account of Rosario's age at the time of the ceremony. Rosario's parents intervened and opposed the petition. They argued that their written parental consent cured any deficiency arising from Rosario's minority and that, at most, the marriage was voidable rather than void, since parental consent is a formal requisite whose absence merely renders the marriage voidable and capable of ratification upon Rosario's reaching the age of majority. Is the argument of Rosario's parents meritorious? (Bar 2026 Syllabus)
