An arm of the Vatican has dismissed a grievance filed by St. Louis-area Catholic elementary school teachers that alleged Archbishop Raymond Burke had violated canon law by refusing to recognize their union.I heard this on one of the news channels last night, but could not find any details on their web sites or at the web site for the ACEE.
In response, the local Association of Catholic Elementary Educators filed an appeal this week to the Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura, a Supreme Court-like body of the church.
The decision, a one-page letter, arrived the first of this month at the union's office. It said that canon law limits such recourses to "all singular administrative acts," while Burke's letter "is a general decree which applies to everyone in the Archdiocese, not only to the Association of Catholic Elementary Educators."
