If you get a good attorney you could try to file for Presumptive Death. From what I hear, most of the clever attorneys in the Philippines can usually make it work whether it is genuine or not and it's usually both faster and cheaper than an annulment. http://jlp-law.com/blog/presumptive-...uent-marriage/
