AMPLIUS. - The wording of the decisions of the Sacred Congregations (v. CONGREGAZIONI ROMANE; CURIA ROMANA) is generally drawn up in brief formulas: affirmative ("yes"), negative ("no"), and the like, which refer to the questions previously formulated and reproduced in the decision itself.
Sometimes to this formula is added the clause et amplius, an abbreviation of: et amplius non proponatur (that is: let the question be no longer raised). The juridical effect of this clause is as follows: whereas as a rule, if the interested party requests it within ten days, the cardinal prefect may, after hearing the opinion of the congress, grant the beneficium novae audientiae, that is, the re-examination of the case by the Congregation, when instead the clause et a. is added to the decision, such a grant can be made only by the plenary Congregation (cf. Ordo servandus in Sacris Congregationibus, Tribunalibus, Officiis Romanae Curiae, of 29 Sept. 1908, part II, chap. 4, no. 10).
