Trial Setting Conference Continued To January 4

The trial for the damage suit brought by the vestry against the ACA, the ACA Diocese of the West, and some individuals was postponed last month due to the wait for the appeals court's decision on the Bush group's appeal of Judge Strobel's 2015 decision. The session before Judge Murphy today was changed from the trial itself to a new trial setting conference.

However, with the appellate decision still pending, Judge Murphy continued the conference again, now to January 4, 2018. Of note, Mrs Bush, "Bishop" Rhys Williams, and Mr and Mrs Creel from All Saints Fountain Valley were in court this morning. Williams represented the DOW and noted for the judge that they were "interviewing" attorneys but had not yet retained one. Nobody represented the Kangs and Frederick Rivers, the individual defendants.
