The Court of First Instance and Instruction number 1 of Briviesca has admitted the demand for precarious eviction presented by the diocese of Burgos against the former nuns of the Belorado monastery, which They have occupied the monastery “without legal title” since they were excommunicated. The admission document nominally cites the 10 former nuns and also “those who remain in the monastery without legal title or authorization (ignored occupants)”, in reference to Bishop Da Silva or relatives of the former nuns, as explained by the Burgos archbishopric.
The eviction decree does not affect the five older nuns, since they were not excommunicated and, at this time “they properly constitute the monastic community of Belorado and legally reside in the monastery.” The text grants a period of ten days to respond to the claim. In addition, it also offers the possibility of holding a hearing on December 19, 2024, and «January 23, 2025 is scheduled for launch practicein the event that the defendant does not appear legally,” explains the note issued by the archbishopric.
Furthermore, the admission decree also entrusts the Civil Guard with the task of identifying the people who occupy the property, in addition to the ex-nuns themselves. According to the decree, the opposition of the defendant, in this case the excommunicated ex-religious “may be based exclusively on the existence of sufficient title to the plaintiff to possess the home. or in the lack of title on the part of the actor. In this sense, it is worth remembering that the property is registered in the name of the Santa Clara de Belorado Monastery and its legal representative in the registry of religious entities, since he was appointed as pontifical commissioner, is the archbishop of Burgos.
The archbishopric also points out that, given the possibility of regaining access to the building, the Federation of Poor Clares of Nuestra Señora de Aránzazu “has planned immediate attention to the older sisters in the Belorado Monastery itselfdisplacing sisters from other monasteries, as long as the former religious do not prevent their access.
Currently, of the ten nuns who signed the Catholic Manifesto that placed them in a situation of schism and led to their excommunication There are only eight left in the monasteryafter the departure in summer of the former vicar general, known as Sister Paz in her religious period, and Sister Adriana a few weeks ago.
In addition to the ex-religious women, the Brazilian sedevacantist bishop Da Silva is also present in the Belorado monastery, which the ex-religious women themselves confirmed in a statement in which they pointed out that “he is not in the monastery but in the rooms outside the cloister.” Several relatives of the ex-nuns also live there, such as the mother of the former nun previously known as Sister Israel, an employee of the Episcopal Conference who has been on leave since the conflict began and to whose account the income from the sale of liturgical ornaments was directed through the Wallapop and Todocolección portals.
