Papal bull concerning canon law
Apostolicae Sedis moderationi is a papal bull (also described as an apostolic constitution[1]) issued by Pope Pius IX on 12 October 1869, which revised the list of censures that in canon law were imposed automatically (lata sententia) on offenders. It reduced their number and clarified those preserved.
As is customary for such documents, the bull is known by its incipit, the opening words of the text.
