Abstract

In the presented study, the author analysed can. 1107 of the Code of Canon Law on the status of marriages invalid due to the impediment or lack of a canonical form in the canon law order. The conducted research shows that its existence results from the Church legislator’s concern for the protection of the legal and formal dimension of the marriage bond. It was proved that the ratio legis of this canon is to enable the convalidation of an invalid marriage due to the existence of an diriment impediment or the lack of a canonical form.
