What does it mean to be a Catholic in good standing and is this defined in the Catechism of the Catholic Church or other official writings?
A person who is a faithful follower of Christ. One who accepts the authority of the Holy See, and follows God's law.
The Catechism defines the law of the Church. In order to be "in good standing." You must follow God's law and live a good Christian life. This is pretty much all common sense, so if you have a more specific question, look it up in the good ol' CCC(Catechism).
God be with you!
