DADIN D'HAUTESERRE, ANTOINE. — Canonist, born at Cahors in 1602, died in 1682. He was professor of law at Toulouse. He wrote on law and history.
His principal works are Innocentius III P. M. seu Commentarius perpetuus in singulas decretales huius Pontifex (Paris 1666); De fictionibus iuris (ibid. 1659); In libros Clementinorum Commentarii (ibid. 1680). He also wrote Ecclesiastica iurisdictionis vindiciae (ibid. 1703), which did not please the Gallicans, although written at their urging. A collected edition of all his works was published at Naples (1777–80).
