Note 449 — Chapter I · JURISDICTION
Richard F. (Richard Frederick) Clarke translation
S. Alph. l. c. n. 570; H. A. n. 83. Lehmkuhl is of opinion that a priest who is convinced of the bishop’s consent to his demand for approbation, may give absolution validly, but not licitly, when the paper granting the faculties has been signed and sent off, so that it cannot be reclaimed or changed except by a message directed to the priest himself, or when the bishop has given the paper containing the approbation to the priest’s messenger, who has not yet delivered it. Lehmkuhl, l. c. n. 380, nota.
