 Milton V. Anastos - 8. Justinian Ι and his relations with Rome
Considerations of a similar nature, it would seem, lay behind Justinian's decision to dismiss patriarch Anthimus(98) of Constantinople (535-36) at the demand of Pope Agapetus of Rome (535-36), who was present in the capital city on a mission for Theodahad, king of the Goths.
Anthimus had come under attack both because he had lapsed from Chalcedonian orthodoxy to monophysitism, and because his elevation from the bishopric of Trebizond to that of Constantinople contravened the fifteenth canon of the First Council of Nicaea (325), which had forbidden the transfer of a bishop from one diocese to another.

And this is in keeping with the fact that the Fathers naturally enough granted the priorities to the throne of Old Rome on account of her being the imperial capital.
For if these facts indicated any such thing, the Bishop of Constantinople too would have to possess the same dignity, since the Bishop of Constantinople, according to the Canons, is a measure and standard of exactly the same and equal value respecting honor of authority and respecting grandeur as is the Bishop of Rome.
In the first sense of the word, therefore, the Bishop of Constantinople is never called an Ecumenical Patriarch, nor is the Bishop of Rome, or anyone else, excepting only Christ, who is indeed truly a Patriarch of the whole inhabited world and to whom was given all authority in heaven and on earth.
