U.S. District Court Judge issues order staying proceedings on Diocesan trademark case

On December 20, 2010 U.S. District Judge Terry R. Means issued an order staying the proceedings in the Diocesan trademark case, Episcopal Diocese of Fort Worth v. Iker, pending in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Fort Worth Division. As a result the court will consider the motions to intervene filed by the Iker-related Southern Cone factions calling themselves the “Episcopal Diocese of Fort Worth” and the “Corporation of the Episcopal Diocese of Fort Worth” before the court considers the Episcopal Diocese’s motion for partial summary judgment.
