Pope Francis today reformed the process by which Catholics may annul their marriages.
The three main changes are:
Eliminating a second review by a cleric before a marriage can be nullified.
Giving bishops the ability to fast-track and grant the annulments themselves in certain circumstances -- for example, when spousal abuse or an extramarital affair has occurred.
Making the process free, except for a nominal fee for administrative costs.
