Doctoral Defence
In October 2024, two doctoral students successfully defended their dissertations in canon law.
Stanley James earned his doctorate with research focused on the canon law regarding the remuneration and support of clerics, particularly addressing those deemed unassignable or unsuitable for the ecclesiastical office. Patrick James Mullins received his doctorate for his dissertation evaluating the effectiveness of the VELM norms, which aim to prevent bishops from failing to enforce canonical penal procedural law in cases of clerical child sexual abuse.
Congratulations to both newly minted doctors!
