Italian term or phrase: Avvocato Saz.
The term 'Avvocato sac.' comes up in an Italian annulment decree, I assume this is some form of canonical lawyer? Any input appreciated!
Thanks

Explanation:
Assuming that you meant Sac.

The Roman Rota, formally the Apostolic Tribunal of the Roman Rota (Latin: Tribunal Apostolicum Rotae Romanae), and anciently the Apostolic Court of Audience, is the highest appellate tribunal of the Catholic Church, with respect to both Latin-rite members[1] and the Eastern-rite members[2] and is, with respect to judicial trials conducted in the Catholic Church, the highest ecclesiastical court constituted by the Holy See.
