Description
Summary:The author makes a canonical study on dismissal from religious institute. Dismissal from religious institute is a very painful act both for the institute and for the member in question. It is imposed, however, as a consequence of certain offences or other grave acts committed by religious. As an effect of dismissal, the bond of membership is affected. The historical background of this notion clarifies its importance from the very inception of religious life in the Church. The author enumerates various motives for dismissal in the light of both Latin and Oriental Codes. While CIC 1983 lists three possible forms of dismissal: automatic (c. 694), mandatory (c. 695) and facultative (c. 696), the Eastern Code of 1990 mentions only two categories of dismissal, namely ipso iure (c. 497) and facultative (c. 499). This article treats in detail various causes for the imposition of dismissal in CIC and CCEO. Certain causes are unique to one of the codes, and some other causes are identical. Both are specified vividly.
