text: . January 9. Nicosia. The following text concerning the greed of clerics was entered into the books and read aloud in the archbishop's palace in Nicosia by Archbishop Hugo (Ugo da Fagiano), in the presence of Archdeacon Guillelmus, Cantor Robertus, and the entire clergy of the city. First, clerics have become so shameless even in and around hallowed ground that, during funeral rites, instead of receiving the offerings from the layfolk who carry them to the altar, they grab them quickly and without shame, not fearing to commit open sacrilege. During a procession with a cross to the house of the dead, everyone carries a cross in order to get candles, with loud cries, even causing the crosses to collide, greatly annoying the layfolk, who cannot stop this. Second, when they are executors for the dead, alone or with associates, some priests do not distribute the bequests faithfully, make inquiries with negligence, or keep it all for themselves. The archbishop declares that anyone who commits any of the above shall be suspended from office and benefice for three months and shall have to repay double what he had taken. Laymen are forbidden from handing anything to clerics who carry crosses, except to two priests assized in the church of Nicosia, to whom what is customary shall be given, specifying for how many crosses and on whose behalf they are giving. Nothing shall be given for a cross that is not accompanied by a cleric and a priest. Once the rites are completed, the two assized clerics shall hand over what they have received. Once the body is in the grave, priests or clerics of the diocese are forbidden from acting as executors without the archbishop's or his successors' knowledge. The archbishop does not want anything from the above, except to prevent misdeeds and to carry out the wills faithfully and quickly. . January 9. Nicosia.

Pope Innocent IV writes to the [cardinal-]bishop of Tusculum (Frascati) and papal legate [Eudes de Châteauroux], relating that the legate told him of a dispute that had arisen between the archbishop of Nicosia (Ugo da Fagiano) and his Latin suffragans, on one side, and the Greek bishops of Cyprus, on the other, over many issues that the legate explained in detail, asking the pope for a solution.

text: . February 19. Rome. In hospitio Ottoboni apud ecclesiam S. Clementis. Cardinal Ottobono deacon of St Adriano, commissioned by the pope, delivers a sealed sentence in the case between the magister and brothers of the Hospital of St Mary of the Germans, represented by Brother Conrad (frater Conradus) their procurator, and Aimery (Aymericus) Barlais, represented by Perin (Perinus) Yspanus his procurator, over the casalia of Arabia and Zachanim. Brother Conrad (Frater Conradus) describes how the Hospital of St Mary of the Germans had occupied the casalia for a long time before Aimery (Aymericus) Barlais seized them unjustly by force of arms. The Order estimates that it has lost 1,0000 marcae since the occupation, together with 1,000 marcae incurred in expenses. On the other hand, Perin (Perinus) Yspanus presents a sealed charter from the king of Cyprus, the dominus of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, granting Aimery (Aymericus) Barlais the casalia and referring to the unjust occupation of them by the brothers of St Mary. Brother Conrad (Frater Conradus) argues that the king, even as dominus of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, has no authority, because the brothers of St Mary are professed religious, not secular persons, and cases relating to these casalia can only be decided in an ecclesiastical court. The response to this is that the casalia belong de feodo regni Iherosolimitani and should be decided in a royal court (the High Court). Brother Conrad (Frater Conradus) replies that the casalia are indeed subject to a court Christian, because the brothers are professed religious, and the casalia were assigned to them in an eleemosynary grant. They are not feudatories and are therefore, not held to reply in a secular court. Cardinal Ottobono finds for the Hospital of St Mary of the Germans. He orders Aimery (Aymericus) Barlais to pay the Hospital of St Mary of the Germans 3,000 besants for each year he has held the casalia, together with 100 librae Provenienses to cover expenses. The witnesses are generally Roman, but include Philippus de Pixano canon of Limassol (canonicus Nymocensis). . February 19. Rome. In hospitio Ottoboni apud ecclesiam S. Clementis.

Pope Innocent IV writes to [cardinal-bishop of Tusculum (Frascati) and papal legate (Eudes de Châteauroux), relating that, as far as he can, he gladly assents to the wishes of the Greek bishops of Cyprus who are devoted to the Roman Church. In the pope’s presence these bishops explained that when their metropolitan see was vacant, they elected as archbishop the Greek cleric George, who was in minor orders, but the pope declared the election void as uncanonical. The Greek bishops begged the pope to allow George’s election, once he is promoted to holy orders, or that of another worthy person. The pope assents to their prayers this time and orders the legate to confirm the election, if it is canonical and of a worthy person, and to have the archbishop-elect shown the proper obedience and reverence, having his suffragans consecrate him, notwithstanding the fact that the previous election is null, or the constitution of the General Council, or the one written by the late [Cardinal-]Bishop Pelagius of Albano, then legate in those parts. .

Pope Innocent IV writes to the master and brothers of the Hospital of Jerusalem, relating that no matter how splendid they are in the Church of God, because of human frailty some of them, both clerics and laymen, are hit with sentences of excommunication and some clerics incur marks of irregularity. On behalf of the addressees the pope was humbly asked for assistance, since traveling for absolution and dispensation could be cause for wandering and an occasion for others to murmur. Inclined by their prayers, the pope grants that the prior-priests of their order shall give absolution and dispensation to those in need as they see fit, whether the cases occurred before or after entry into the order, except in serious cases, which should be referred to the Apostolic See, provided that fitting satisfaction is done to the victims for damages and injuries. .
