Canon 419. While the see is vacant and until the appointment of a diocesan Administrator, the governance of the diocese devolves upon the auxiliary Bishop. If there are a number of auxiliary Bishops, it devolves upon the senior by promotion. If there is no auxiliary Bishop, it devolves upon the college of consultors, unless the Holy See has provided otherwise. The one who thus assumes the governance of the diocese must without delay convene the college which is competent to appoint a diocesan Administrator.
Sede vacante, regimen dioecesis, usque ad constitutionem Administratoris dioecesani, ad Episcopum auxiliarem, et si plures sint, ad eum qui promotione sit antiquior devolvitur; deficiente autem Episcopo auxiliari, ad collegium consultorum, nisi a Sancta Sede aliter provisum fuerit. Qui ita regimen dioecesis assumit, sine mora convocet collegium competens ad deputandum Administratorem dioecesanum.
