Overview

""Rights and Duties of Ordinaries According to the Code and Apostolic Faculties"" is a comprehensive scholarly examination of the legal and administrative roles of ecclesiastical leaders within the Roman Catholic Church. Written by the noted canonist The Rev. Chas. Augustine, this work provides a meticulous analysis of the 1917 Code of Canon Law as it pertains specifically to the office of the Ordinary. The text explores the dual nature of an Ordinary's authority, carefully distinguishing between the powers inherent in the office by the general law of the Church and those delegated through special apostolic faculties. It covers essential topics such as jurisdiction, the administration of sacraments, the supervision of clergy and religious orders, and the management of diocesan temporalities. By clarifying the complex legal framework of the era, this book serves as a detailed guide for understanding the governance and hierarchical structure of the Church following the major codification of its laws. Rich in historical and theological insight, this work offers a clear perspective on the intersection of spiritual authority and legal mandate. It remains a significant resource for students of canon law, church historians, and those interested in the evolution of ecclesiastical jurisprudence and administrative practice.
