Canon 552 1. A temporarily professed member can be dismissed by the superior general with the consent of the council unless the dismissal is reserved in the statutes to the eparchial bishop or another authority to which the order or congregation is subject. 2. In deciding about the dismissal, in addition to other conditions which might be prescribed by the statutes, the following must be observed: (1) the reasons for dismissal must be grave, and on the part of the member, external and imputable; (2) the lack of the religious spirit, which can be a cause of scandal to others, is a sufficient cause for dismissal if repeated warnings, along with salutary penances, have been in vain; (3) the reasons for dismissal must be certain in the mind of the dismissing superior, although it is not necessary that they be formally proven. Yet, they must be always made known to the member, granting the member full opportunity of defence, and the responses are to be faithfully submitted to the dismissing superior. 3. A recourse against the decree of dismissal has suspensive effect.
