Can a person object to an intended marriage and what is the procedure?
If there are valid grounds such as the existence of a valid marriage or either party’s mental incapacity of making the decision to marry, anyone can object to the intended marriage. The person may come to the Registry of Marriages (ROM) to lodge a caveat or objection. Please note that there is a non-refundable prescribed fee of $310.
