: Legal Pad | LALA Episcopal Diocese goes after Newport Beach church for separation legal fees
By Richard Binder
The Episcopal Diocese of Los Angeles will try to recover attorneys fees and court costs from the church and some of its members who voted to break away from the Episcopal Church in 2004, resulting in a bitter legal battle over St. James? Via Lido campus.
Legal fees are bound to be high in the case, which involved a small army of attorneys.
St. James cut ties with the Episcopal Church in 2004 over differing views on theology and homosexuality. The diocese claimed it had a right to keep St. James? Newport Beach church after it left the Episcopal Church, but the state Supreme Court ruled in favor of the diocese in January.
An Orange County Superior Court judge is slated to hear the matter May 15.
