The Rights and Obligations of an Exclaustrated Monk/Nun

Abstract

The article focuses on the exclaustration of a religious with an emphasis on the rights and duties in this new situation. These rights and duties should be specified preferably in the indult of exclaustration. If not, it would be a good idea for the major religious superior to draw up an agreement with the religious about these rights and obligations. An exclaustration is not necessarily a precursor to the departure of the religious, but a legal way of dealing with a particular problematic situation – both for the community and for the member currently being exclaustrated. For this reason, we also consider it necessary to ensure the legal certainty of both the exclausted religious and the institute in an unambiguous way.
