Can. 1607.

§ 1. A judge delegated by the Holy See can use the ministers constituted in the Curia of the diocese in which he must judge; but he can also choose and assume any others whom he prefers, unless another thing is provided in the rescript of delegation.

§ 2. Judges delegated by local Ordinaries, however, must use the ministers of the diocesan Curia, unless in some particular case the Bishop has decreed that his own and extraordinary ministers are to be constituted because of a grave cause.
