Description
Subreption, in canon law, is the hiding of facts that law or custom requires an applicant to state when seeking a rescript, a written papal grant. Its effect matches obreption, the opposite fault of alleging what is false. It may be deliberate and malicious, or it may come only from ignorance or oversight. It may strike at the main reason for the grant, or merely at a secondary motive. For its effect on the grant's validity, the entry points readers to Rescripts.
