Litigation - the Diocese of San Joaquin

The Diocese of San Joaquin has been the pioneer in the wave of dioceses deciding to make their way apart from the autocratic path of the Episcopal Church (USA) that began under its current Primate and Presiding Bishop. The litigation strategy for which ECUSA is now notorious has been tested to the fullest here, and as a result the posts on it are the most complete analysis of that strategy which you will find on this site. If you want to understand what is happening today in all the litigation brought by the Episcopal Church (USA), you could do worse than begin here.
