  Auxiliary bishop - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bishop Richard Pates, current auxiliary bishop of the Archdiocese of Saint Paul and Minneapolis and the Titular Bishop of Suacia.
According to Canon law, no bishop can be ordained without title to a certain and distinct episcopal see which he governs either actually or potentially, therefore auxiliary bishops are titular bishops to sees that no longer exist.
Canon law requires that the diocesan bishop appoint each auxiliary bishop as vicar general or episcopal vicar of the diocese.

 Titular bishop - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A titular bishop is a bishop of the Catholic Church who is not in charge of a diocese (Code of Canon Law, Canon 376).
Examples of bishops belonging to this category are coadjutor bishops, auxiliary bishops, bishops emeriti, vicars apostolic, nuncios, superiors of departments in the Roman Curia, and Cardinal Bishops of suburbicarian dioceses (since they are not in charge of the suburbicarian dioceses).
Cardinal Bishops of suburbicarian dioceses are also titular bishops, but they hold titles to existing dioceses, namely one or more of the suburbicarian sees, but while they do not govern their see they are obliged to give it their patronage.

Auxiliary bishops and other titular bishops who are members of the conference of bishops enjoy either a deliberative or consultative vote according to the prescriptions of the statutes of the conference; however, only those mentioned in +1 enjoy a deliberative vote when it is a question of drawing up or modifying the statutes.
The permanent council of bishops is to prepare the agenda for the plenary meeting of the conference of bishops and see to it that the decisions made during the plenary sessions are properly implemented; it is also to care for other matters which are entrusted to it according to the norm of the statutes.
The diocesan bishop is to communicate the texts of the synodal declarations and decrees to the metropolitan and to the conference of bishops.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Auxiliary Bishop
A bishop deputed to a diocesan who, capable of governing and administering his diocese, is unable to perform the pontifical functions; or whose diocese is so extensive that it requires the labors of more than one; or whose episcopal see has attached to it a royal or imperial office requiring protracted presence at court.
Titular bishops are those who have been appointed by the Holy See to a see or diocese which, in former times, had been canonically established and possessed cathedral church, clergy, and laity, but at present, on account of pagan occupation and government, has neither clergy nor people.
The titular archbishop-coadjutor is not bound to petition for the pallium or the use of it.

 Auxiliary bishop - OrthodoxWiki
An auxiliary bishop (also called vicar bishop, suffragan bishop, or chorepiscopus) is a bishop with no territorial authority working under the authority of a diocesan bishop.
The auxiliary typically is given episcopal functions to assist the work of the diocesan hierarch under whose authority he operates.
In the ancient Church, the chorepiscopus (sometimes called a "country bishop") was like the modern auxiliary bishop but usually served in the countryside near a city which had its own bishop and under whose authority he operated.

 Auxiliary Bishop | DisciplesNow.com
An auxiliary bishop is a titular bishop appointed by the Holy See, who does not have jurisdiction, but a fullness of holy orders, and who assists a ruling bishop of a diocese in carrying out the work of that diocese.
Because they are not appointed to a diocese in a jurisdictional capacity, they are named titular bishops and, unless by special privilege, do not have the right to succeed to the government of the diocese should it become vacant.
Auxiliary bishops may be listed as "assistant bishops" when designated by the Ordinary of the diocese.
