ETUDE DU CAN. 382, § 1 ET DE SES INCIDENCES JL'RIDIQJUES Le droit actuel affirme que I'eveque designe a la tete d'un diocese doit franchir certaines etapes avant de pouvoir exercer son office. Le fait de la designation sous-entend la reception de la mission canonique qui, elle, suppose la communion de I'elu avec le chef du college et ses membres. II doit evidemment recevoir la ((consecration episcopal©) si ce n'est deja fait, a l'interieur du temps fixe par le droit. II doit enfin prendre possession canonique du diocese qui lui est confie. La prise de possession canonique constitue la derniere etape marquant le debut de l'exercice du ministere pastoral du nouvel eveque. Elle est essentielle a l'exercice de 1'office de I'eveque diocesain. C'est pourquoi, le can. 382, § 1 interdit a I'eveque designe d'exercer son office avant d'avoir rempli cette exigence. Le can. 382, § 1 reprend en substance les dispositions du can. 334, § 2 du CIC/17. La consecration episcopale et la mission canonique ne suffisent pas a I'eveque designe pour exercer 1'office qui lui est confie. En interdisant a I'eveque de s'ingerer dans le gouvernement de son diocese avant la prise de possession, le can. 382, § 1 etablit I'inhabilite implicite de I'eveque designe. L'episcopat comme tel n'est pas un office ecclesiastique et la promotion a la dignite episcopale ne donne pas droit a l'exercice immediat de 1'office. 11 existe deux positions sur la signification juridique de t'institution qui fait Pobjet de cette etude. La premiere, celle defendue recemment par le professeur Arrieta, soutient que la non- observance de cette exigence ne conduit pas a la nullite des actes du fait que le can. 382, § 1 ne le present pas expressement. L'auteur cite a cet effet le can. 10 sur les lois irritantes et inhabilitantes. L'exigence de la prise de possession canonique serait done ad liceilatem. La seconde souligne que pour qu'une chose soit dite «expressement», il n'est pas necessaire qu'elle soit dite «explicitement». Elle peut l'etre soit «explicitement», soit «implicitement». La nullite des actes est virtuellement exprimee par le can. 382, § 1 sans etre formellement exprimee. L'eveque agirait d'une maniere non conforme a la loi s'il arrivait a exercer son office avant qu'il ait pris possession canonique de son diocese. L'exigence de la prise de possession serait done ad validitatem, e'est-a-dire elle est requise pour la validite de certains actes du pouvoir de gouvernement.

  • Marriage Nullity ~
    „LUCIAN BLAGA” UNIVERSITY OF SIBIU “SIMION BĂRNUŢIU” FACULTY OF LAW DOCTORAL DISSERTATION ~ Marriage Nullity ~ Sumarry Scientific advisor Professor Dr Alexandru Bacaci Doctoral candidate Dan­Adrian Doţiu SIBIU 2008 1 Chapter 1. General aspects of the institution of marriage nullity 1.1. Introductory concepts Among all judicial acts setting of the existance of the human being, none has a greater importance than those related to marriage. Having a universal character in space and being constant throughout history, the marriage is, at the same time, diverse in geographica space and variable in time. It means even the family origin 1. The Romanian law giver has foreseen by imperative dispozitions the root and formal conditions for entering into a marriage. Being a solemn legal transaction, the marriage cannot be entered into under any conditions. At the same time, the future spouses must present the proof of fulfilling the basic conditions foreseen by the Family Code 2. The check by the registrar of the deeds presented by the future spouses and of eventual opposition to the marriage and the good faith presumption, means, as a principle, warranties of a valid marriage. In spite of these, the law giver has not excluded the possibility of beaching the legal requirements irrespective of the reasons.That is why by the provisions of Articles 19­24 Family Code, the law giver has regulated the institution of abolition the marriage if at enterin into marriage the root and form conditions were not fulfilled or there was an impediment 3. In this dissertation we intend to approach the problem of marriage abolition based on the in force laws and doctrines.

  • An Access-Dictionary of Internationalist High Tech Latinate English
    An Access-Dictionary of Internationalist High Tech Latinate English Excerpted from Word Power, Public Speaking Confidence, and Dictionary-Based Learning, Copyright © 2007 by Robert Oliphant, columnist, Education News Author of The Latin-Old English Glossary in British Museum MS 3376 (Mouton, 1966) and A Piano for Mrs. Cimino (Prentice Hall, 1980) INTRODUCTION Strictly speaking, this is simply a list of technical terms: 30,680 of them presented in an alphabetical sequence of 52 professional subject fields ranging from Aeronautics to Zoology. Practically considered, though, every item on the list can be quickly accessed in the Random House Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary (RHU), updated second edition of 2007, or in its CD – ROM WordGenius® version. So what’s here is actually an in-depth learning tool for mastering the basic vocabularies of what today can fairly be called American-Pronunciation Internationalist High Tech Latinate English. Dictionary authority. This list, by virtue of its dictionary link, has far more authority than a conventional professional-subject glossary, even the one offered online by the University of Maryland Medical Center. American dictionaries, after all, have always assigned their technical terms to professional experts in specific fields, identified those experts in print, and in effect held them responsible for the accuracy and comprehensiveness of each entry. Even more important, the entries themselves offer learners a complete sketch of each target word (headword). Memorization. For professionals, memorization is a basic career requirement. Any physician will tell you how much of it is called for in medical school and how hard it is, thanks to thousands of strange, exotic shapes like <myocardium> that have to be taken apart in the mind and reassembled like pieces of an unpronounceable jigsaw puzzle.

A COMPARISON OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE LAW OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH AND THE UNITED STATES Rev. John J. Coughlin, O.F.M.* I. INTRODUCTION Some years ago, an international symposium of jurists described administrative law as encompassing the entire range of action by government with respect to the citizen or by the citizen with respect to the government, ex- cept for those matters dealt with by the criminal law, and those left to private civil litigation where the government's only participation is in furnishing an impartial tribunal with the power of enforcement.' The broad parameters of the concept of administrative law attest to its importance in any legal system. Indeed, for at least the past fifty years, comparative legal scholars have focused on diverse na- tional systems of administrative law.2 Canonists have also contrib- * Assistant Professor of Law, St.

  • Did Paul VI “Illegally” Promulgate the New Mass? (2000) by Rev
    Did Paul VI “Illegally” Promulgate the New Mass? (2000) by Rev. Anthony Cekada The Society of St. Pius X and A popular traditionalist myth. MOST CATHOLICS who abandon the New Mass do so because they find it evil, irreverent or non-Catholic. Instinctively, though, the Catholic knows that the Church of Christ cannot give us something evil, since the Church would then be leading us to hell, rather than heaven. Catholic theologians, indeed, teach that the Church’s univer- sal disciplinary laws, including laws governing the sacred litur- gy, are infallible. Here is a typical explanation from the theologi- an Herrmann: “The Church is infallible in her general discipline.
