He got a military pass from his jail warden and confronted Bona
about the rumors, which she and Gagarin admitted. Since then
they were separated, and their foundling, Ramona Celeste,
stayed with Bona in Basilan until 1994 to live with Jose.
OSG appealed the said ruling to the CA, and the CA subsequently
granted the appeal and reversed the ruling of the trial court
decision.
Issue:
Whether or not Bona should be deemed psychologically
incapacitated to comply with the essential marital obligations.
Ruling:
No. There is inadequate credible evidence that her defects were
already present at the inception of, or prior to, the marriage.
Bona’s alleged psychological incapacity did not satisfy the
jurisprudential requisite of “juridical antecedence”. Her
persistent sexual infidelity and abandonment are not badges of
psychological incapacity nor can’t it be traced to the inception of
their marriage.

GOVERNMENT SERVICE INSURANCE SYSTEM v.

RESOLUTION
G.R. No. 162372
xxxx
Held:
The SC ruled in the negative. The phrases tax and duty-
free
importations of raw materials, capital and equipment was merely cited
as an
example of incentives that may be given to entities operating within
the zone.
Public respondent SBMA correctly argued that the maxim expressio
unius est
exclusio alterius, on which petitioners impliedly rely to support their
restrictive
interpretation, does not apply when words are mentioned by way of
example.
The petition with respect to declaration of unconstitutionality
of
Executive Order No. 97-A cannot be, likewise, sustained. The
guaranty of the
equal protection of the laws is not violated by a legislation based
which was
based on reasonable classification. A classification, to be valid, must
(1) rest on
substantial distinction, (2) be germane to the purpose of the law, (3)
not be
limited to existing conditions only, and (4) apply equally to all
members of the
same class. Applying the foregoing test to the present case, this Court
finds no
violation of the right to equal protection of the laws. There is a
substantial
distinctions lying between the establishments inside and outside the
zone. There
are substantial differences in a sense that, investors will be lured to
establish and
operate their industries in the so-called ‘secured area and the present
business
operators outside the area. There is, then, hardly any reasonable
basis to extend
to them the benefits and incentives accorded in R.A. 7227.
