How were lords punished if they disobeyed the church in middle ages?

In the Middle Ages, priests were not tried for crimes in secular courts unless they had committed such a crime as treason. For most felonies or misdemeanors, they were tried in ecclesiastical courts, which had rather different standards than secular courts. Punishments for priests found guilty of crimes usually included the guilty being defrocked, but could also include some sort of penance, such as service on the crusades or in a monastery. There was some question as to whether a priest who was defrocked could subsequently be tried for the same crime in secular court. If he was, then he would get the same punishment as anyone else.
