CWN Editor's Note: The Vatican has dismissed two Dominican priests in the Democratic Republic of Congo from the clerical state, for refusing to obey orders to leave a parish.

The two priests were involved in a dispute over administration of a parish in the Kinshasa archdiocese. While the Dominican order claimed title to the parish grounds (a claim that was contested), the archdiocese had appointed another priest as pastor.
