increase the need for nullity of marriage

Ecclesiastical Court in the last ten years, the cases treated in the Abruzzo region have almost tripled
parallel to requests for divorce, also discussed the causes of nullity of marriage before the Regional Ecclesiastical Court, which has jurisdiction over eight dioceses of Abruzzo and Molise Trivento dioceses (the territory of which half is made up of communities of our region) will increase steadily: this is the most important fact which emerged yesterday afternoon from the inauguration of the judicial year 2009 Church of the court, based in the regional seminar in Piazza Trento e Trieste. The data, presented by the judicial vicar, Mgr. Angelo Vizzarri in the presence of neo-prefect of the Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic, Mgr. Raymond Leo Burke, and the moderator of the court Abruzzese, Mgr. Bruno Forte, photograph a reality where the exponential increase in requests for nullity of marriage in the last ten years, have almost tripled the cases treated, increased from 49 in 1998 to 127 last year. Of these, 116 have come to the decision: 101 positive, which have thus declared the marriage canon, and 15 negative. It is the diocese of Pescara-Penne, with 39 cases, to have the record for the number, followed by Chieti-Vasto with 32 and 25 with Teramo-Atri, all the other dioceses do not reach the 10 cases each (Trivento even just one). The reasons most appropriate in cases heard by the cancellation request is the so-called 'exclusion of indissolubility, "that is the belief, espresso chiaramente, che il matrimonio canonico non sia unico ed indissolubile (60 casi), mentre per 45 volte si è invocata l'«esclusione della prole», 36 il «grave difetto di giudizio», 21 la «incapacità di assumere gli oneri coniugali». Dati che fanno riflettere i responsabili della pastorale matrimoniale, tanto che «la Chiesa – ha concluso mons. Vizzarri – pur non rimanendo passivamente a guardare quanto accade nel suo interno ed esternamente, deve fare un esame di coscienza per rinnovarsi e potersi riproporre e confrontare con il mondo di oggi».
