Summary/Abstract: The Code of Canon Law of 1983 referring to hierarchical recourse, does not limit it merely to appeal to the Congregation of Roman Curia, but it refers to each recourse placed to higher executive administration organ. The subject of our interest, however, is the hierarchical recourse placed in front of the Roman Curia after exhausting the hierarchical path of lower grades. Because according to can. 1737 § 1 Code of Canon Law, anyone who considers himself injured with the decree can place recourse to hierarchic superior of the one who delivered the decree. Therefore we are speaking about the subject of the recourse, the motive, as well as, the procedure to be undertaken in order to obtain the desired goal, appeal or change of harmful act.
