Lojo613 1420 Share Posted January 9, 2021 (edited) A Call to Trial With the Authority vested by His Holiness, High Pontiff Owyn III, the Auditor of the Tribunal hereby calls Cyril Cardinal St. Publius, FSSCT and Father Dima Carrion, FSSCT to trial on the following charges as set forth in the Codex Iurius Canonici Danielus Ponifex (“Canon Law”): I. Being Schismatics, for denial of the authority of His Holiness Owyn III (Canon Law §V.II.2.1) II. Falsification of miracles, for the false claim that Bl. Seraphim of Leora appeared to you (Canon Law §VII.II.1.1) Conspiracy against the Church, for the creation of a group that intends to violate Canon Law through an unlawful synod. (Canon Laws §V.II.2.5 and §II.II.1.8) III. Sedition, for making this declaration public rather than privately addressing concerns to the Curia and, therefore, defaming the Church through your actions. (Canon Law §V.II.1.1) IV. Violation of holy vows, for disobedience to your superior Owyn III and for the falsification of miracles. (Canon Laws §V.II.1.5) The date for this trial has been set for ((6PM EST)). The location shall be the Karosgrad Cathedral, in Haense. Should the accused not appear before this fair and lawful trial as requested by His Holiness at the set date and time, they shall be tried in absentia. Failure to show up for trial and, if found guilty, accept judgment is considered to be evading ecclesiastical authority, and the accused will lose their ecclesiastial offices as detailed under Canon Law §I.II.2.6.4, that is, “a person is automatically removed from ecclesiastical office if they have evaded ecclesiastical authority.” It is advised that this removal, done automatically through Canon Law, also falls outside of the action of the reigning Pontiff. Therefore, said removal does not come into conflict with Canon Law §II.II.2.7, which states “the High Pontiff shall not remove from that office more than one cardinal in each year.” Since these penalties are applied automatically, terms of penance will immediately be issued regarding these penalties as stipulated in Canon Law §V.IV.1.6, that is “if an ecclesiastical penalty is issued automatically by force of law, terms of penance should be issued by the appropriate authority when it becomes known.” https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-PpW_w8n-2eclLNdIxUUGtPdRkXwGEf8BY9wQjBYNUc/edit?usp=sharing ((All credit to @Burnsiderfor the formatting and editing of the document)) Edited January 9, 2021 by Lojo613 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReveredOwl 5351 Share Posted January 9, 2021 "They are speaking off the punishment they are going to receive and the justification behind it almost as if the outcome of this trial is already determined. In order for this trial to be fair then the judge should be independent from the church hierarchy. The very fact you refer to them as schismatics before finding them guilty speaks that a trial is just a formality." remarked Hubert as he read the summons, in his home. 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goren thinks back on Boniface as he works, his anemic form pouring over lawbooks and through chronicles from his filthy room in Providence. He thinks to that man who saved his life, who he did confess even his darkest secrets to. "If he yet lived... perhaps he could have judged this, and us" he says, signing the Lorraine 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rukio 8910 Share Posted January 9, 2021 "This reminds me of the time the church and Orenian officials like, uh, the Carringtons, murdered the Pontiff before the one before this one, I forget his name, but you know what I mean, right? Then tacked it onto some old guy who lied in court that he killed him." Brynja would remark as she hears of the trial to be, tracing the scar etched deep into her eye. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
