| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Family |
 | | Christ not only restored the family to its original type as something holy, permanent, and monogamous, but raised the contract from which it springs to the dignity of a sacrament, and thus placed the family itself upon the plane of the supernatural. | | | In the main, the verdict of scientific writers is in harmony with the Scriptural doctrine concerning the origin and the normal form of the family: "Wherefore a man shall leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they shall be two in one flesh" (Genesis 2:24). | | | Being the provider of the family, and the superior of the wife both in physical strength and in those mental and moral qualities which are appropriate to the exercise of authority, the husband is naturally the family's head, even "the head of the wife", in the language of St. Paul. |

| | Evidence of a defendant's membership in an organized crime family may be introduced to explain a plot to obstruct justice, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled. | | | In Gigante, the trial court allowed hearsay statements on conversations between various Mafia families about their desire to kill a man named Corky Vastola. | | | Although Trager was careful to instruct the jury that simple affiliation with the Colombo family was insufficient to convict the defendants, both men claimed on appeal that the evidence was irrelevant and prejudicial. |
