 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Ecclesiastical Courts   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Thus, for instance, in the Austro-Hungarian Empire the ecclesiastical court of Prague is the court of appeal for the Archdioceses of Vienna and Salzburg; for Prague it is Ohmütz; for Olmütz, Vienna.
With regard to the ancient ecclesiastical discipline it is worthy of remark that in former times an appeal was allowed from the tribunal of the metropolitan to that of the primate or patriarch.
Where appeals are possible, the courts are said to be subordinate one to the other, and are so in fact; hence, for instance, a metropolitan court can, by a genuine order or mandate, require such data from the inferior court as may seem to it necessary for a proper cognizance of the case.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Church History
Ecclesiastical history is the scientific investigation and the methodical description of the temporal development of the Church considered as an institution founded by Jesus Christ and guided by the Holy Ghost for the salvation of mankind.
The ecclesiastical historian applies first that philosophical pragmatism which traces the genesis of events from a natural standpoint and in the light of the philosophy of history, and tries to discover the ideas which underlie or are embodied in them.
Since ecclesiastical history is so closely related to theology on the one hand, and on the other to the historical sciences, a knowledge of all is generally speaking a prerequisite for the scientific study of church history.

 Operation Clambake Present: Scientology Court Files
The administrative record persuades the court that CST was founded for the primary purpose of gaining tax-exempt status to serve the financial goals of other, non-exempt entities, and that CST's archiving activities are secondary to its obtaining a tax exemption and would not of themselves qualify CST as a tax-exempt organization under I.R.C. s 501(c)(3).
Courts that have examined the affairs of the other Scientology management churches have been persuaded that the way in which Scientology operates is often indistinguishable from any commercial activity, and that church resources have been used for private benefit.
The court in CSC also found that the church had failed to carry its burden of proving that it was organized and operated *727 exclusively for exempt purposes, and had failed to produce financial information, or had denied the IRS access to many financial records.

She is a woman who gives for money that which she ought to give only for love; who ministers to passion and lust alone, to the exclusion and extinction of all the higher qualities, and nobler sources of enjoyment which combine with desire, to produce the happiness derived from the intercourse of the sexes.
We may be thankful that the ecclesiastical law forbidding the clergy to marry, and thereby letting loose on the community thousands of men in danger and adding to the numbers of the tempters and tempted, is no longer in force in this country...
The causes of the supply have now to be examined; and first we may consider how far seduction operates in bringing women into the ranks of prostitution.

 Royal Commission on Ecclesiastical Discipline
It is recognised that the authority exercised by this Court of that of the Crown and not that of the Church.
Ecclesiastical litigation, like all other litigation, is expensive where the notoriety of the particular case leads to the employment of eminent counsel, or where the obscurity of the matters in issue occasions investigation by experts.
The same cause has not hindered the efforts of the Bishops to remedy neglect of the proper conduct of public worship, because irregularities of this kind are naturally matters of administration rather than of litigation, and are seldom brought before the Courts.

 Johnson
The highest courts of several States have upheld state statutes prohibiting the public burning of the flag on the grounds that it is so inherently inflammatory that it may cause a breach of public order.
The Court was careful to note, however, that the defendant "was not charged under the desecration statute, nor did he permanently disfigure the flag or destroy it." Ibid.
The Court affirmed the lower court's reversal of appellee's conviction, because the phrase "treats contemptuously" was unconstitutionally broad and vague.

 M'Learned Friend
Consistory Court hearings are not as informal as planning inquiries, and the Chancellor need not hear someone who merely turns up on the day.
It is not surprising therefore that several Consistory Court cases in recent years have explicitly considered the extent to which the listing of a church is a material consideration that should be taken into account by the Chancellor in reaching his or her decision.
The Court of Arches (or the Chancery Court of York in the northern province) is the court to which an appeal is made from a decision of a Consistory Court in every other case.

 Jewish History Sourcebook: Bernard Lazare: Antisemitism, Its History and Causes, 1894
It was this chief cause, together with the secondary causes previously referred to, viz., the wealth of the Jews, their political influence, their privileged condition, that led to anti-Judaic demonstrations at Rome.

The judge presided from a raised desk, with a lower clerk's desk immediately in front, which was flanked by boxes for the sheriff and court crier, Counsel faced the judge; behind them sat the jury, and, behind the jury, the public.
He supported the incorporation of British courtroom decorum-wigs, robes, and ceremony-into the practice of American jurisprudence, and even took to riding his circuit in the majesty of a coach-and-four emblazoned with his arms and attended by postilions and scarlet-clad outriders, to be met and escorted to the courthouse by town officials and citizens of note.

 LEGAL
The first concern in the hearing of a disciplinary allegation, which can affect for ever the reputation of a clerk in holy orders as well as result in removal from pastoral office, is that justice should be done - and secondly, that it should be seen to be done.
The consistory court system set up in 1963, itself the product of an enlightened reforming process which cleared up a whole ragbag of unsatisfactory procedures, certainly goes out of its way to ensure that the highest standards, those of what is now the Crown Court, are applied in the trial of an accused cleric.
Possibly so, in the three cases actually heard so far, although there are aspects of the 1963 procedure which raise grave doubts about its impartiality, such as the selection of assessors from within the diocese of the accused cleric.

 Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers, Series II, Vol. II
He proposed that all disputation with the heterodox, as being a fruitful source of contention and war, should be avoided; but recommended that inquiries should rather be instituted, as to whether the heretics admitted the testimony of the expositors and teachers of the sacred words, who lived before the Church was rent in division.
The pretext which he advanced for this measure was, that he desired to prevent the introduction of innovations in the ancient form of religion and of ecclesiastical order; but he was in reality actuated by the desire of dispelling any suspicion that might have been excited as to his aspirations after tyranny.
He caused some young men accustomed to sing at the table of the emperor to utter these hymns with the litanies of the Antiochans.

 Short History of the Delaware Chancery Court   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
The 200th Anniversary of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware is testimony to the Court's ability to adapt principles of equity developed centuries ago to ever-changing economic circumstances and legal relationships.
The Court approached these modern takeover fights with the "let 'em play" attitude of a good NBA basketball referee, ignoring the "incidental contact" inevitable in such contests and only "blowing the whistle" when a participant was unfairly impeded from the goal.
The Court's willingness to devote its careful attention to and ability to provide justice in simple cases involving ordinary people is as important a justification for its survival as a court of equity as its capacity to decide corporate disputes.

Traditional pews were dispensed with and a new stone altar was commisioned from the sculptor Henry Moore.

Originally carved at a quarry near Rome, the same quarry from which Michaelangelo drew his material, the altar was accepted and now forms the centrepiece of the church.
