Hello, My nephew has been recently told he cannot marry in the Catholic Church because he is a quadraplegic and impotent. Canon law Can. 1084 §1. Antecedent and perpetual impotence to have intercourse, whether on the part of the man or the woman, whether absolute or relative, nullifies marriage by its very nature seems to imply this while canon law 1084 §3. Sterility neither prohibits nor nullifies marriage, without prejudice to the prescript of ⇒ can. 1098, may not? He recently went to the justice of the peace and contracted a marriage because he has been told he could not marry in the church. It gets more complicated than this but if I can start here with an official answer I would appreciate the guidance!!!
