A tribunal in an archdiocese is a formal ecclesiastical court responsible for handling various matters within the church, including marriage cases, annulments, disputes over clergy discipline, and other canonical issues. It typically consists of clergy members and legal experts appointed by the Archbishop to adjudicate cases according to Canon Law. The tribunal operates under strict confidentiality and strives to uphold justice and fairness while following the teachings and guidelines of the Catholic Church.
