Tribunal 

Purpose

The Marriage Tribunal of the Diocese of Fort Worth is the office which adjudicates the marital status in the Catholic Church of any divorced person who has requested a declaration of nullity (an “annulment”) of a previous marriage.

The Tribunal exercises its ministry of truth and justice in a spirit of compassion and confidentiality according to the teaching and practice of the Catholic Church.

All who share in this ministry commit themselves to mutual support and ongoing formation in the Church’s canon law and its practical application.
