Legal Summary	1. Obiectum renuntiationis a sacerdote Ordinario praebitae, qua in statum quiescentiae poni petit, ex adiunctis probandum est (in casu sacerdos, nullum aliud officium detinens, petitione de qua officio canonicatus renuntiavit). 2. Ius ad honores canonicatus absque oneribus seu munere ex iure communi non competit (in casu nec ex particulari capituli statuto). 1. The object of a resignation submitted to the Ordinary by a priest, by which he asks to be placed in retirement, must be established from the circumstances (in the case at hand the priest, who held no other office, by the petition in question resigned the office of canon). 2. There is no right under the common law to the honors of a canon without the burdens or the function (in the case at hand, not even under the particular statute of the chapter).   Italian
