(literally, "co-assister" in Latin) is a bishop himself, although he is also appointed as <a href="/wiki/Vicar_general" title="Vicar general">vicar general</a>. The coadjutor bishop is, however, given authority beyond that ordinarily given to the vicar general, making him co-head of the diocese in all but ceremonial precedence. In modern times, the coadjutor automatically succeeds the diocesan bishop upon the latter's retirement, removal, or death. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Catholic_Church">Catholic Church</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Coadjutor_bishop&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Catholic Church"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Bishop_(Catholic_Church)" class="mw-redirect" title="Bishop (Catholic Church)">Bishop (Catholic Church)</a></div> <p>In the <a href="/wiki/Catholic_Church" title="Catholic Church">Catholic Church</a>, a coadjutor is a bishop with papal appointment as an immediate collaborator of the diocesan bishop in the governance of a diocese, with authority to substitute for the diocesan bishop in his absence and right to automatic succession to the <a href="/wiki/Episcopal_see" title="Episcopal see">diocesan see</a> upon death, resignation, or transfer of the incumbent diocesan bishop (Canon 403§3).<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The diocesan bishop <i>must</i> appoint the coadjutor as <a href="/wiki/Vicar_general" title="Vicar general">vicar general</a> and <i>must</i> "entrust to him before others" acts that require a special mandate (Canon 406§1).<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The coadjutor holds the title of "Coadjutor" of the see, and the coadjutor of an archdiocese has status as an archbishop. </p><p>Some <i>sui juris</i> <a href="/wiki/Eastern_Catholic_Churches" title="Eastern Catholic Churches">Eastern Catholic Churches</a> also appoint coadjutors, but the manner of choosing them follows the norm of the particular law of each church for election or appointment of its bishops. Thus, the patriarchal or major archiepiscopal synods of the larger <i>sui juris</i> ritual churches typically elect coadjutors, with papal assent, while the pope typically appoints coadjutors in the smaller <i>sui juris</i> ritual churches personally. The coadjutor of an eparchy, archeparchy, or <a href="/wiki/Metropolis_(religious_jurisdiction)" title="Metropolis (religious jurisdiction)">metropolis</a> has the respective status of an eparch, archeparch, or metropolitan. </p><p>Particular churches that are not dioceses also may have coadjutors. Perhaps one of the more widely known examples is the appointment of <a href="/wiki/Fernando_Ar%C3%AAas_Rifan" title="Fernando Arêas Rifan">Fernando Arêas Rifan</a> as Coadjutor of the <a href="/wiki/Personal_Apostolic_Administration_of_Saint_John_Mary_Vianney" title="Personal Apostolic Administration of Saint John Mary Vianney">Personal Apostolic Administration of Saint John Mary Vianney</a> in 2002, less than a year after the reconciliation of the former Priestly Union of Saint John Mary Vianney formed this particular church.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In modern church practice, the normal reason for appointment of a coadjutor is to begin an orderly transition with declining health or expected retirement of a diocesan bishop. For example, Bishop <a href="/wiki/Dennis_Marion_Schnurr" title="Dennis Marion Schnurr">Dennis Marion Schnurr</a> of the <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Diocese_of_Duluth" title="Roman Catholic Diocese of Duluth">Diocese of Duluth</a>, <a href="/wiki/Minnesota" title="Minnesota">Minnesota</a>, was named Coadjutor Archbishop of the <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Archdiocese_of_Cincinnati" title="Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Cincinnati">Archdiocese of Cincinnati</a>, <a href="/wiki/Ohio" title="Ohio">Ohio</a>, in 2008 to succeed aging Archbishop <a href="/wiki/Daniel_Edward_Pilarczyk" title="Daniel Edward Pilarczyk">Daniel Edward Pilarczyk</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-wcpo20081017_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-wcpo20081017-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> However, other situations do arise—a coadjutor may have authority to override the diocesan bishop with respect to a matter of public scandal, mismanagement, or other some problem that does not warrant removal from office. The <a href="/wiki/1983_Code_of_Canon_Law" title="1983 Code of Canon Law">revised Code of Canon Law</a> stipulates that all coadjutors have right of succession, while providing for the appointment of an auxiliary bishop "with special faculties" in lieu of a coadjutor when automatic succession is not indicated.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The <a href="/wiki/1917_Code_of_Canon_Law" title="1917 Code of Canon Law">1917 edition of the Code of Canon Law</a> distinguished between coadjutor bishops <i>cum jure succesionis</i> ("with the right of succession") and those without, so coadjutors were sometimes appointed without such a right, usually as archbishops in particularly large dioceses who also held other important posts and to honor certain auxiliary bishops.
