text: End Dec. 1199 - Early Jan. 1200. Pope Innocent III writes to the archbishop of Tyre and the bishop of Sidon. A case was heard in Rome by 3 cardinals relating to a dispute over the church of Nefins, its tithes and 3 casalia, between the church of Tripoli, represented by S[eguinus] prior sancti Michaelis and A[imericus] canonicus Tripolitanus, and the magister and brothers of the Hospital of St John of Jerusalem. Pope Celestine III had written to the patriarch of Jerusalem, ordering the archbishop of Nazareth and the abbas of the Mt of Olives to put the Hospitallers in possession of church of Nephin, its tithes and the 3 casalia. Innocent reverses that judgement in favour of the church of Tripoli. He orders the archbishop of Tyre and the bishop of Sidon to execute his judgement.

institution: Saint Mark in Tyre
text: Apr. 5. Lateran. Pope Innocent III writes to the patriarch of Jerusalem and the archbishop of Caesarea. He describes how the bishop of Paphos came into his presence, bringing the sentence delivered by the [judge delegates], the bishops of Acre, Tiberias and Beirut, in the case between the archbishop of Tyre and the plebanus of the church of St Mark [in Tyre]. The bishops had followed the papal mandate in demanding that the parties appear before them, but the plebanus had refused to accept the papal mandate or appear before them, appealing instead directly to the Holy See. The bishops visited Tyre, heard testimony and excommunicated the plebanus, restoring his church to the parochial jurisdiction of the archbishop. But representatives of the doge of Venice informed the pope that the Venetians had at the time of the conquest been granted one third of Tyre and that the church of St Mark in Tyre had had parochial rights for a long time. They present letters from Popes Clement III and Celestine III in support of their argument. It was pointed out, moreover, that two of the judge delegates were suffragans of Tyre and therefore biased. Innocent quashes the judgement of the bishops and orders the archbishop of Tyre to restore its rights to the church. The patriarch and archbishop should have this decision published in Tyre.
