Tribunal information for the Archdiocese of Seattle

The Tribunal primarily addresses the marital status of persons and their freedom to marry in the Catholic Church. Each parish should have a Tribunal Representative, who should be the first contact for marital status questions.  If you do not have one at your parish, contact Tribunal@seattlearch.org.
