Johannes Andreae, Novella to X 3.34.7, Venice 1581, reprinted Torino 1963, fol. 171r no. 5: "Sed [Hostiensis] quaerit etsi sic omnia liceant pape, numquid deceant? Respondet [Hostiensis] si subest iusta causa deviandi a iure quod sibi licet, decet, et econverso, infra eodem, de accusat. Cum dilecti. Et sumitur haec causa ex uno de quatuor, scilicet ex qualitate negotii, personae, loci, aut temporis, de transact. c. finali, cum suis concordatis. Si vero non subest causa vel subest non sufficiens, non decet ipsum a iure aliquatenus deviare, C. de leg. et constit. Digna vox. 11 q.1 Pervenit, de statu monach. In singulis. Sed si subest causa, licet minus sufficiens, minus dedecet  (motivum leve?). . . Querit demum cum secundum praedictum modum omnia licenat et deceant, numquid expediant? Respondet si ordine iudiciario agitur semper expedit iustitiam facere, et numquam illam pervertere.

Hostiensis asks although all things are permitted to the pope are all things fitting? He responds that if there is a just cause for departing from the law what is permitted to him is fitting and vice versa. . . . We may judge the cause from four factors: the importance of the affair, the person, the place, or the time. . . . If there is not a just cause or if the cause is not sufficient, it is not fitting for the pope to depart from the law at all. But if there is a cause, but the cause is less sufficient, it is less fitting. . . . Hostiensis also asks finally when the pope acts fittingly and in those things that are permitted, whether it is always expedient? He responds that when he acts in the judicial process it is always expedient to render justice and never to pervert the procedure.
