Causa pro solutioni vinculi matrimonialis in favorem Fidei
BTW, I know this is Latin, not English, but since there is only one translator receiving Latin to Chinese questions, I am trying this combination too ;-)

受到信仰保護的
A marriage between two believers (catholics) called sacramental marriage for it is "in favorem fidei" and can be resolved (solutioni vinculi matrimonialis) only through a process approved by the Pope.
Your question is concerning the expression "in favorem fidei" in which "favorem" should not be interpreted as simply the English word "favor." The phrase means "in protection of belief" or "protected by belief."
This why I translate it as above. Cf. http://archive.hsscol.org.hk/Archive/periodical/ct/CT027F.ht... and take especially a close look of Canon 97, §1.

In short, a sacramental marriage is protected by belief and shall not be separated less than death. This is why I translate "in favorem fidei" as "受到信仰保护的.

The key lies in the Latin word "favor." It is not always simply a favor in sense of English language. It can be "protection."
"In favorem" can be interpreted as "under protection of."

For sure, you can understand "in favorem fidei" as "in favor of belief" as well, but that wouldn't affect the meaning --- because of the belief it is to be obeyed that a sacramental marriage shall not be separated less than death.
Unless there is a "causa" which is to be approved by the Pope. And this is what's about with "Causa pro solutioni vinculi matrimonialis in favorem Fidei" in your text, I guess.

Thanks, but please look up in a Latin dictionary. I have enough reasons to translate the phrase that way.

Comment: "favor fidei 信仰优先权
假如在上述个案中，那位外教人所离异的配偶领过圣洗，就不能使用保禄特权了。同道们遇到了离婚的个案，看见实在无法使「破镜重圆」的时候，那幺，最要紧的是注意离婚的双方领过洗没有。如果都是外教人，多半可以使用保禄特权；如果夫妇都领过洗(不一定该是天主教的洗礼)，使他们合法离异就差不多是不可能的了。在台湾、港、澳多次碰到的是夫妇一方是教友，一方是外教人。这时，虽然他们成婚前得到主教对「信仰不同」婚姻限制的豁免，婚礼是在教堂内举行的，还是可能合法地解散婚姻的。这就是「信仰优先权」的个案。

in favour of faith
1. in favorem fidei, literally, in favour of faith, or to the advantage of the Christian faith ( in keeping with the word 'favorem' which is in accusative case)
2. in considering the cause for the dissolution of the bond of marriage (be it among baptized, unbaptized, or mixed couple; or the widowed, or even the Mormons), the arguments are always in favour of the faith (generally speaking, in favorem fidei is a way of reasoning)
3. therefore, I am in favour of the Chinese translation from the website cited by Wenjer Leuschel.( under article 104).

The guiding principle of in favorem fidei is set out by St Paul in 1 Cor 7:12-16.

BTW, as far as the marriage is concerned (quoting Canon Law, Can. 1150): In a doubtful matter the privilege of the faith enjoys the favour of law. :-)
