Excommunication for enslavement of Indians was automatic (latae sententiae):

>>In May 1537 (DS 1495) Pope Paul III wrote to the Archbishop of Toledo:

It has come to our ears. . . that Charles [V] the [Holy] Roman Emperor ... to repress those who, eager for gain have an inhuman attitude to the human race,
has prohibited by public edict that anyone should presume to reduce to slavery the Western or Southern Indians. ... we give orders that. . . to all and each one
of any dignity whatsoever ... you give strict orders under penalty of automatic excommunication ... that they must not in any way presume to reduce the
Indians we mentioned into slavery ...<<
