The month’s judgments include reordering, disposals, exhumation, and churchyards. When Re St. Maughold Maughold was sent to Ecclesiastical Law Association members &ors, it was pointed out that this is one of the few judgments from the Isle of Man, and there had been a delay in its circulation this judgment whilst a form of citation was agreed. The Isle of Man was deliberately excluded from the list of neutral citations published at the beginning of this year, as it is not strictly part of England; it was therefore necessary for the Diocese of Sodor and Man to determine its own form of citation. [Note: the Maughold judgment relates to Manx secular and ecclesiastical legislation].
In addition to the consistory court judgments, the Church of England has published the decision in the matter of a complaint under the Clergy Discipline Measure 2003 before the Bishop’s Disciplinary Tribunal for the Diocese of Europe: Complainant, The Ven. Jonathan Wilford Lloyd; Respondent, The Rev. Professor James Meredith Day.
