Abstract

This work presents the high importance that it takes on due to the complexity of the subject, because while a person changes his/her sex through medical intervention, his/her civil status does not change, and by getting married he/she may incur in an illegal marriage, as estimated by Chapter II of Title XI art. 217 et seq. of the Spanish Penal Code; especially in the crimes of bigamy, art. 217 and the Judge who authorizes marriages prohibited by law, art. 33.
