    Antipope Laurentius “a Pope who is a manifest heretic, ceases in himself to be Pope and head , just as he ceases in himself to be a Christian and member of the body of the Church: whereby, he can be judged and punished by the Church ” (De Romano Pontifice, II, 30, by St. Robert Bellarmine).  Archpriest of Santa Prassede, Laurentius was elected pope on 22 November 498, in opposition to Pope Symmachus, by a dissenting faction.

The answer: Those who have the right to baptize are those in the priesthood, such as priests, deacons, bishops, cardinals, and especially the Pope, as long as their sacrament of holy orders is valid. However, in necessary cases, the person to be baptized shouldn't be dying or not necessary if must be dying as for example, if there are no valid priests in a region or area, or there are only priests who truly teach teachings contrary to the Catholic Faith, or there are only non-Catholic priests . Even if the priest is valid but Schismatic, unfortunately, he should be avoided because they (schismatics) teach a false and fatal catechism like revolt against Papal Supremacy and Papal Infallibility. Therefore, laypeople, both true Catholics, Schismatics (if they are not the obedient people), heretics and pagans, can baptize as long as they comply with...

However, Christ declared to Dismas, the repentant thief, that he would be with Christ (Acts in the Gospel of Luke 23:39-43). This implies a Baptism of Desire.
