I think that you see through to the underlying problem. To the best of my knowledge there is nothing special about red ink in signing a tribunal document. There is a special use of red ink in producing liturgical books, and in this case it is called "Rubrics" which are the instructions on what to do while you are pronouncing the words in black. They got their name "Rubric" from the red ink with which they were printed. But this has absolutely nothing to do with tribunal documents.
The Diocese Tribunal.
is a marriage in a Lutheran church rercognized by the catholic church by the matrimonial tribunal
The catholic church has tribunal courts that adjudicate matters of church law. For example, if you get divorced and then wanted to have your marriage annulled in the eyes of the church, the annulment would have to be declared by the tribunal court. The state's court has no authority over what the church recognizes.
an inquisition
A catholic tribunal operates according to ecclesial law and therefor its finds are not binding on any other body (ie. civil or military).
Write to the Marriage Tribunal in the Diocese where you got married.
Yes if there is an annulment. No if there is a divorce.
Catholic AnswerNo.
An anullment may or may not be granted by the Catholic Church tribunal. Unlike a civil divorce, not everyone who applies for one receives one. The tribunal may find that the marriage is valid and the couple are united in wedlock for the remainder of their lives. The tribunal may decide that the marriage was not valid from the start. Whichever way it decides, each party will be notified of the tribunal's decision.
Yes. The Catholic Church can "annul" any marriage. The marriage must first be presented to the marriage tribunal through your local diocese. After the tribunal concludes their investigation and, having found sufficient evidence that the marriage was indeed invalid, a "Decree of Nullity" will be issued.This process can be lengthy and sometimes expensive.
In the Catholic Church, individuals who are divorced may be able to marry again in a Catholic church under certain circumstances, such as obtaining an annulment of their previous marriage. It is important to consult with a priest or a marriage tribunal for guidance on this matter.
