Ján Dechet (28 June 1908 in Radošina – 10 June 1968 in Bratislava) was a Slovak Roman Catholic priest. As one of the left-wing nationalist "patriotic priests" who supported the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia, Dechet was appointed the bishop of Banská Bystrica by the Communist authorities in 1950, after the death of the previous bishop Andrej Škrábik. Dechet's appointment was caused by the Communist authorities forcing out the official successor of Škrábik out of office, as the Vatican failed to meet the government's demand to consult clerical appointments with the Communist authorities beforehand. Initially, the Vatican refused to recognize Dechet and he excommunicated in 1950 by the Holy See. His excommunication was subsequently lifted in 1951, and his position was recognized by the Holy See. The Church started respecting the Communist government's demands afterwards.
