Extravagantes
Extravagantes, those decretal epistles which were published after the Clementines. They were so called because first they were not digested or arranged with the other papal constitutions, but seemed to be, as it were, detached from the canon law. They continued to be called by the same name when they were afterwards inserted in the body of the canon law. The first extravagantes are those of Pope John XXII., successor of Clement V. The last collection was brought down to the year 1843, and was called the common extravagantes, notwithstand-ing that they were likewise incorporated with the rest of the canon law.Papal constitution and decretal epistles of Pope John XXII and his succession, Black's Law Dictionary, 7th Edn., p. 607....
