....In three cases, St. Andrew's, Syracuse, St. Andrew's, Vestal, and
Good Shepherd, Binghamton, the Diocese has sued two parishes and is
saddled with the expenses of two church buildings in Vestal (the one
of the three not sued). What does the diocese have to show for their
efforts? They have the legal expenses from two lawsuits, one settled
and one ongoing and the proceeds from the sale of the rectory in
Vestal. Considering that the rectory sold for $145,000, the diocese is
operating at a loss thus far from its hostile approach. The diocesan
loss is in both financial and in reputation. Of course, the diocese
has been steadily losing reputation since at least the failed
persecution of Fr. David Bollinger. Legal expenses will mount up as
the diocese prepares to wage legal war against Good Shepherd.
