The Third Lateran Councils Declares Certain Heretical ordinations Invalid
Canon 2: Following the example of our predecessor Innocent (II), of happy memory, we declare null and void the ordinations conferred by the heresiarchs Octavian and Guido of Crema, as well as those by John of Struma who succeeded them. Likewise the ordinations performed by those consecrated by them. Those who have received ecclesiastical dignities or benefices from the hands of the aforesaid schismatics shall be deprived of the same. The alienation also of ecclesiastical properties by the same schismatics or by the laity, has no force and must be returned to the Church without any charge. If anyone presumes to act contrary to this, let him be excommunicated. Those who have freely sworn to adhere to the schism, we declare to be suspended from sacred orders and dignities.
