- After the brothers in the house have been consulted, the superior of a house is appointed for three years by the prior provincial, or by the regional prior, if the appointment concerns a brother assigned in a regional vicariate and unless the statutes of the vicariate provide otherwise. He may be appointed in the same manner for a further three years, but not for a third term.
- At the end of the three-year period, the prior provincial or regional prior is obliged to appoint a superior within a month. However, a superior of a house shall remain in office until his successor is present in the house, unless the prior provincial determines otherwise.
