A marriage contracted in good faith produces civil effects even when it is declared null and void.
If there has been good faith on the part of one of the spouses it only provides civil effects with regard to that spouse and the children.
Good faith is presumed, if there is no evidence to the contrary.
If there has been bad faith on the part of both spouses, the marriage will only provide civil effects with regard to the children.
