The article explains how sinodality is displayed and realized in the canonical system of the Church, studying the principles of ecclesiastical communion and  consultation on which sinodality should be based, the governing bodies of the Church through which a realisation of the sinodality would be possible, and the
future prospects of such realisation.

Not only does the Holy See possess its own assets, whose management requires appropriate attention, but it is also an entity that performs certain supervisory functions in relation to the assets of universal Church. A particularly important aspect of exercising this supervision by the Holy See is its control over specific alienation procedures regarding the universal Church’s assets. Therefore, the status quo leads to the question of whether the regulations contained in the Code of Canon Law of 1983 are sufficiently clear and comprehensible, whether they raise any doubts as to their interpretation, and whether they can guarantee the actual supervision of the Holy See over the alienation of assets, and thus the proper protection of church property. Furthermore, what is the form this supervision takes and — given the premises of Pope Francis’s reform — do the procedures connected with obtaining permission of the Holy See correspond with both the «demands of the times» and requirements of the Church in the contemporary economic and legal reality? The present article shall address and answer the aforementioned questions through an analysis of the regulations listed in the Code that govern the indicated matter.

This contribution addresses the question of the need for a provision for Ecclesiastical Courts in the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, which, from one part, guarantees freedom of Thought, Conscience and Religion to her citizens, and from other provides the Muslim the constitutional right to vindicate his/her rights in the Sharia Courts of Appeal. The paper interrogates what the significance should have such «Ecclesiastical Court of Appeal» for Christians in Nigeria and what
could be the merits, demerits and future prospects of such a bill in a secular State, with freedom of religion for the multiple faiths of the citizens.

This article wishes to present some issues that usually, analyzing the administrative contentious judgment, appear marginal or secondary, but which, instead, have a certain relevance and therefore deserve attention and study. We proceed on the basis of the doctrine, referring especially to those Authors who have carried out or perform some work at the Signatura, so as to be able to deduce from their thought what may be the practice followed at the Supreme Apostolic Tribunal.
