REMOVAL. - A. or removal or more often privation (but generally the latter term is used when it is a matter of a penal sanction) is the dismissal of the holder of an ecclesiastical office; it sometimes takes place ipso iure, as a consequence of a penal condemnation (cf. cann. 2266 and 2396-98), while at other times it must instead be pronounced by the ecclesiastical authority. Besides the distinction between removable and irremovable offices, with regard to the causes that can legitimize dismissal, it is to be noted that for the second category of offices, unlike the first, dismissal cannot take place except following a regular judicial process (cf. cann. 192, § 2 and 1576, § 1); for the removal of parish priests a special administrative procedure is established, more complex for irremovable parish priests than for removable ones (cf. cann. 2147-2161).
The promotion of the holder of an office to another, higher office, and transfer from one office to another, do not fall within a. properly so called (see also AMOVIBILITÀ).
