I suppose if the “parish” has left the Episcopal Church and the building and land were “its” building and land, there really isn’t much of a dispute. Not sure why this would see the inside of a court. I suspect, however, that some parishioners left the Episcopal Church to move to another denomination and that they are claiming the building as their new church home. It may also be that some parishioners did not leave, but one cannot tell from the linked story.
