| Résumé: | Mary was baptized a Latin (Roman) Catholic. Her father is a Latin Catholic and her mother is a Greek Orthodox. Mary was educated and raised in the Catholic faith. Prior to her marriage in 1990 she formally converted to the Greek Orthodox faith, in which she continues to worship. She subsequently married a Latin Catholic man in the Greek Orthodox Church. No dispensations for the marriage had been sought from or granted by the Catholic Church. In view of canon I 127, is Mary considered to be Greek Orthodox and thus, is her marriage to this Catholic man valid, though illicit? Or is Mary still considered to be Catholic, and thus not able to marry validly a Catholic in the Greek Orthodox Church? Since the marriage has failed, would it be processed by the tribunal as a formal annulment or as a simple lack of canonical form case? |
