An ecclesiastical crime is a crime (delictum) related to the clergy where the crime is against canon law vis-à-vis civil law.
The crime of simony is the ecclesiastical crime of paying for offices or positions in the hierarchy of a church. The crimes of schism[1] and heresy are also ecclesiastical crimes.
Older examples include "perjury", the breaking of a promissory oath (contractual promises made by oath or pledge of faith), and this was treated as an ecclesiastical crime[citation needed]. Some crimes have or have had both an ecclesiastical and a civil element to the crime; suicide[citation needed] and witches[2] are counted here.
