Bishop Fellay as an assessor in the Roman Rota
In my conversation with Dr Dollera, i mentioned bishop Fellay as a member of the Roman rotten Rota.
How can we prove that?
If it is true, it means they are more involved with the novus ordo than before, and this whole Kabuki theater with Fernandez is just that.
You can perhaps ask the forum what proof there is. It would be useful.

+fellay admits this on video, see beginning of this clip, he states "the congregation of the faith appoints me as judge"

In video description says: See also : "Vatican confirms appointment of Bp. Fellay to judge SSPX priests" : https://web.archive.org/web/20150804071437/https://vaticaninsider.lastampa.it/en/the-vatican/detail/articolo/lefebvriani-lefebvrians-lefebvrianos-41514/

If this is indeed the case, then it is one more reason the SSPX cannot be considered "schismatic", even by Newchurch standards.  Just as you don't give schismatics faculties, neither do you appoint their bishops to the Roman Rota.

If Rome proclaims latae sententiae excommunication of Fellay et al in July, I would assume he will lose this job.  The faculties are probably also in jeopardy, at least for the bishops involved (as I understand it, LS excommunication wouldn't percolate down to SSPX priests, in that they aren't the ones doing the consecrating, nor are they receiving it aside from the priests chosen to be consecrated).

It was common knowledge in 2015:

Catholic World News
Vatican names Bishop Fellay to hear canonical charge against SSPX priest, despite bishop's suspension

June 04, 2015
Bishop Bernard Fellay, the head(...) Society of St. Pius X (SSPX), reports that he has been appointed by the Vatican as judge in the canonical trial of an SSPX priest.
Bishop Fellay observed that the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, which handles serious accusations against clerics, named him to hear the case although he is suspended from active ministry and the Vatican does not recognize the SSPX. It is “a beautiful contradiction indeed,” he said.

  The Vatican’s decision to give Bishop Fellay canonical jurisdiction in the case could also be seen as a sign that the Holy See continues to hope for reconciliation of the SSPX. Archbishop Guido Pozzo, the secretary of the Ecclesia Dei commission, told Vatican Insider: “I see no contradiction here, but rather a step toward reconciliation.”

Fr. Matthew Salenave would know first hand if +F has that faculty from Rome...He was tried by some type of judges from neoSSPX .  They used the 1983 Code ie. condemn without proof required.

***************

And when in 2024 AD. they send a priest to the Golden Prison, well, isn't that approved by Rome too? Interesting question.

Vatican mandates Bishop Fellay to judge lefebvrist priest.

AI translation: unofficial

Rome, June 5, 2015 (Apic) The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF) has mandated Bishop Bernard Fellay, Superior of the Schismatic Fraternity St-Pie-X (FSSPX), a trial judge for the trial of a lefebvrist priest accused of serious crime.
Bishop Fellay himself announced the news, during a sermon in California, last May, reports on June 3, 2015 the website “Vatican Insider”. The Valais bishop presented the fact as an example of the Holy See’s “contradictions” regarding his relations with the Separate Brotherhood of Rome since 1988.
