Canon 546

1. The temporarily professed may freely leave the order or congregation at the expiration of the time of the vows. 2. One

who, while still in temporary vows, requests for a grave reason

to leave the order or congregation, can obtain from the superior

general with the consent of the council the indult to leave the

order or congregation definitively and return to secular life,

with the effects mentioned in can. 493; in congregations of eparchial right, the indult, in order to be valid, must be confirmed

by the local eparchial bishop where the main house of the same

congregation is located.
