| Summary: | "A large number of Tribunals has reported that the Apostolic Signatura has over the past year or so been cautioning Tribunals about the way in which such cases should be adjudicated. When the officers of the CLSA visited the Rota in Rome in May 2008, they asked for and were provided with a Definitive Sentence for publication which is of considerable interest. In his letter forwarding the sentence, Rev Paul Counce noted: "It is the decision which flowed from a concession of the favor of new hearing by the Signatura. The 2005 decree of the latter was published in Periodica, and fundamentally objected to the way in which the Rota and subordinate Tribunals had been handling cases on the grounds of Defective Convalidation. The publication of the decree was accompanied by voluminous commentary thereon (80+ pages) by now-Cardinal Navarrete." Father Augustine Mendonça, who is presenting a seminar on this topic at the 2008 CLSA convention, has prepared the following translation and sanitized the specific references to render them anonymous. The Latin text of the In lure section is included immediately after the English translation. At the end of the Sentence we are also printing a sample of the letters sent from the Signatura to a number of Bishops." |
