Where there are serious indications that the intended marriage is null and void under articles 144, 146, 146-1, 147, 161, 162, 163, 180 or 191, the diplomatic or consular authority shall immediately refer the matter to the competent public prosecutor and inform the interested parties.
The Public Prosecutor may, within two months of the referral, inform the diplomatic or consular authority of the place where the celebration of the marriage is planned and the interested parties, by means of a reasoned decision, that he is opposed to the celebration.
Removal of the opposition may be requested, at any time, before the judicial court in accordance with the provisions of articles 177 and 178 by the future spouses, even if they are minors.
