Paulinus of Trier Saint
“After the exile in 353 of Bishop Paulinus of Trier to Phrygia an episcopal election was held in which Bonosus was elected bishop of Trier: he refused however to take up the post, perhaps because he was convinced that Paulinus was still the rightful bishop of Trier and therefore could not be replaced.” — Wikipedia
