News on the property dispute in Virginia. Remember, the commonwealth has a special statute to deal with such disputes and the trials still go on and on and on.
At least nine of the 11 Virginia churches that broke away from the Episcopal Church and affiliated themselves with the Convocation of Anglicans in North America in will be back in court on Oct. 14.
On Friday, Sept. 26, Fairfax County Circuit Court entered an order stipulating that the nine Anglican District of Virginia congregations that filed petitions under the Virginia Division Statute have satisfied the voting requirements of that statute.
Fairfax County Circuit Court Judge Randy Bellows ruled April 3 that the congregations, which now comprise the ADV, properly invoked the Civil-War-era Virginia statute stating that church majorities are entitled to church property when there is a division within their denomination.
