It is never used by the official Catholic Church. Of the seven sacraments, all of the sacraments may be performed by a Bishop, a priest cannot consecrate a Bishop, or ordain another priest or deacon. He may only confirm with the Bishop's permission. So, in the normal course of affairs, he may baptize, confect the Eucharist, hear confessions, witness marriages, and anoint the sick and dying. A deacon may only baptize and witness marriages.
