As a result of the annulment of marriage that occurred in the case under study, the wife felt disadvantaged, which in law violates Article 27 paragraph (2) of Law Number 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage which reads: "A husband or wife may file a petition for annulment of marriage if at the time of marriage there is a misconception about the husband or wife".
