Court of Faculties

Read a random definition: mere licensee

A quick definition of Court of Faculties:

Court of Faculties: A special court in the Church that is overseen by an archbishop. This court grants special permissions, like a license for marriage, and makes decisions about things like monuments and funerals.

Master of the Faculties: An important person in the Church who leads the Court of Faculties in the province of Canterbury. They give out licenses and decide who can be a notary public.

A more thorough explanation:

The Court of Faculties is a tribunal in Ecclesiastical law that is headed by an archbishop. It grants special dispensations, such as a marriage license, and decides questions relating to monuments and mortuary matters.

The Master of the Faculties is an officer in the province of Canterbury who leads the Court of Faculties. They have the power to grant licenses and admit or remove notaries public.

For example, if a couple wants to get married in a church but one of them is not a member of that church, they may need to obtain a marriage license from the Court of Faculties. The Master of the Faculties would be the one to grant this license.

Another example would be if a family wants to erect a monument in a churchyard to commemorate a loved one. The Court of Faculties would have the authority to decide whether or not this monument is appropriate and can be installed.

These examples illustrate how the Court of Faculties and the Master of the Faculties play an important role in regulating certain aspects of the Church and its practices.
