| Beginning in 1198, Pope Innocent III issued a series of decretals that reformed the ecclesiastical court system. |
| That the pseudo-Isidorian decretals were not written with a view of exalting the papal power, but rather that of the bishops. |
| The archbishops eagerly accepted the decretals because they hoped to profit by their doctrines. |
| The maxims of the Fathers, the decretals of the pontiffs, cannot be the rule of our faith. |
| The new collection of decretals had an immediate diffusion and between 1250 and 1350 many copies were produced in the universities of northern Italy and France. |
| He also composed a commentary on the Consueludines Feudorum, and on some books of the decretals. |
