Pojęcie przeszkody małżeńskiej publicznej i tajnej w doktrynie po 1983 roku
The Concept of the Public and Occult Impediment to Marriage According to post-1983 Doctrine

Summary/Abstract: The literal analysis of legal texts presented in this article supported by a review of the protocols issued by the Pontifical Commission for the Revision of the Code of Canon Law showing the legislator’s intention, and by an examination of the system of canon law, leads to the conclusion that all the norms in the 1983 Code of Canon Law referring to the division of marriage impediments into occult and public should be interpreted in light of the norm of c. 1074 of the 1983 Code. Therefore, whenever the law refers to public impediments, what is important is not whether the impediment in question has been divulged but whether it can be proved in the external forum in accordance with the provisions of canon law, which also determine the strength of the proofs produced.
