Removability

AMOVIBILITÀ

Italian original Cite

REMOVABILITY. - Ecclesiastical offices are called irremovable (or also perpetual or titled) or removable (also called manual or temporary), according to whether their holder has a right to stability, and therefore cannot be removed except for causes more or less strictly established by law, or whether he can be removed for any just cause or even at the discretion (ad nutum) of the superior.

As a rule all secular benefices (v. BENEFICIO) are irremovable (can. 1438), with the exception of certain parochial benefices. Non-beneficial offices are for the most part removable (v. also AMOZIONE)
