Canon 1368

1. The sentence which first declared the nullity of the marriage together with the appeals if there are any and the other acts

of the trial, are to be sent ex officio to the appellate tribunal

within twenty days from the communication of the sentence. 2.

If the sentence rendered in favor of the nullity of marriage was

in the first grade of trial, the appellate tribunal by its own

decree is to confirm the decision without delay or admit the case

to an ordinary examination of a new grade of trial, after considering the observations of the defender of the bond and those of

the parties if there are any.
