From The Tribune Review Pittsburgh-
Church leaders from 55 parishes in the Anglican Diocese of Pittsburgh gathered Sunday at St. Martin's Anglican Church in Monroeville to address concerns about an ongoing lawsuit over their split from the national Episcopal Church of America.
The parishes broke away in 2008 over issues ranging from abortion to the consecration of a noncelibate gay bishop. The Episcopal Diocese of Pittsburgh sued, and an Allegheny County judge ruled last year that the Episcopal Diocese should retain control of diocesan assets worth millions of dollars.
Robert Duncan, bishop of the newly formed Anglican Diocese, informed representatives of the parishes that the appeal of the case is ongoing. Other church leaders answered more detailed questions about financial issues related to the split.
