Marriage question
« on: February 03, 2024, 01:23:24 PM »
Hello. Are dispensation, or when the diocese grants a free to marry due to lack of form, acceptable from a traditional perspective? Is the person free to marry?

You'd have to ask them. They don't accept what comes from the "diocese" for obvious reasons, but they do recognize that lack of form can make a marriage invalid. Best thing to do is go in and tell them the details.

It will also probably depend on what "traditional" means here.  It could be FSSP or ICKSP.

Lack of form is probably one of the most straightforward and could easily be verified.  Of course, the NO has applied "lack of form" to Catholics whose marriages were witnessed by a Traditional priest.

Aren’t they kinda being internally consistent there though?
