The A2 version of the False Decretals is the shortest of the six major versions of this collections. Compared to Pseudoisidore A1, it lacks the middle part consisting of conciliar canons. Fuhrmann, p. 155:

Class A2 did not contain the conciliar portion, but only the decretals from Clement to Damasus (366-384). The central section is completely lacking. In A2 the text of Confessio of the Constitutum Constantini is immediately followed by that of ‘Excerpta quaedam ex synodalibus gestis sancti Silvestri papae’, and manuscripts in this class end in the middle of the decretals of Damasus. Consequently A2 does not include the letter of Damasus against the ‘chorepiscopi’ already incorporated in the Augustodunensis. It is a peculiarity of this class that the chapters are provided with rubrics and that all the decretals of the individual popes are numbered.
