Mississippi Court Dismisses Suit Against Diocese By Church That Was Not Rebuilt

By Howard Friedman

ADVERTISEMENTS
According to WLOX TV on Friday, a Pass Christian, Mississippi, a state trial judge has dismissed a suit brought by members of St. Paul's Catholic Church against the Diocese of Biloxi. The suit challenged the consolidation of St. Paul's into another parish and sought an accounting of the funds that were contributed to St. Paul?s Parish after Hurricane Katrina. Members wanted St. Paul's rebuilt on its former beachfront location. (See prior posting.) The court apparently relied on church-state concerns as the basis for the dismissal. Plaintiffs' attorney said he would appeal.
