Sanctions in the Church » Offenses and Penalties in General » The Application of Penalties
Canon 1349. If a penalty is indeterminate, and if the law does not provide otherwise, the judge in determining the penalties is to choose those which are proportionate to the scandal caused and the gravity of the harm; he is not however to impose graver penalties, unless the seriousness of the case really demands it. He may not impose penalties which are perpetual.
Si poena sit indeterminata neque aliud lex caveat, iudex in poenis determinandis eas eligat quae inducto scandalo et damni gravitati proportionatae sint; poenas tamen graviores ne irroget, nisi casus gravitas id omnino postulet; perpetuas autem poenas irrogare non potest.
