Description
Summary:The increasing number of Orthodox-Catholic marriages in India constitute a canonical and pastoral reality. The author, first, analyses which type of norms regulate the celebration of Catholic-Orthodox marriages with regard to canonical form, impediments and the vices of consent. The second part of the article analyses, according to the type of norms, the validity of Orthodox marriages as judged by Catholic ecclesiastical tribunals, in case an Orthodox party decides to remarry a Catholic, since the Orthodox is bound by a prior matrimonial bond and since the Catholic Church does not recognize Orthodox judgments on marriage "annulment."
