CWN Editor's Note: In an unsigned order, the Supreme Court declined to intervene in a class action lawsuit against the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops over Peter’s Pence.
A Rhode Island resident, David O’Connell, filed a lawsuit against the bishops, alleging that they misrepresented the nature of the annual collection. The case now returns to a lower federal court.
