The Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX) is pursuing legal avenues in Rome against excommunications declared by the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith following episcopal consecrations at Écône. The Fraternity’s General House has stated that it has followed the procedures provided by canon law and requests that the legal and doctrinal objections raised be examined. The matter is now before unspecified competent authorities, and the Fraternity will maintain discretion during the proceedings. The appeal continues amid strained relations between Rome and the traditionalist world, with Cardinal Arthur Roche stating that the Pope will not change Traditionis custodes or return to Summorum Pontificum.
