Michele Di Ruberto (28 August 1934 – 26 April 2025) was an Italian prelate of the Roman Catholic Church.
Di Ruberto was born in Pietramontecorvino, and was ordained to the priesthood on 29 September 1957. He graduated from the Pontifical Lateran University and the University of Naples, and then entered the Roman Curia in the Congregation for the Causes of Saints in 1969. In 1984, Di Ruberto was placed in charge of verifying miracles attributed to candidates for canonization, and in 1993 was named the Congregation's Undersecretary.
On 5 May 2007, he was appointed Secretary of Causes of Saints and Titular Archbishop of Biccari by Pope Benedict XVI. He received his episcopal consecration on the following 30 June from Cardinal Secretary of State Tarcisio Bertone, SDB, with Cardinal José Saraiva Martins and Bishop Francesco Zerrillo serving as co-consecrators.
He was an expert in canon and civil law.
Di Ruberto died in Rome on 26 April 2025, at the age of 90.[1]
