Aha! N.B.: The Diocese of
Pittsburgh is too clueless to embed the
date of what is apparently a
periodical publication in the Web address at which they're storing it.

M. NOTICES REGARDING INDIVIDUALS PRESENTING THEMSELVES AS PRIESTS IN GOOD STANDING
The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops has published notices regarding priests who are not in good standing and do not possess the faculties of their diocese or religious community. Should you be contacted by them please notify the Vicar for Canonical Services immediately.
[....]
Fr. John J. Cordaro Diocese of Scranton
[....]
Mr. Andy Richardson (not ordained)
The names immediately above are unable to be shown in the 2-column format in which they originally appeared in the docuмent that's cited in the Web address above. Even were I able to show the columns in the PDF, they completely
lacked any
heading, so in the case of Cordaro, readers have no way to know what the right-side text "Diocese of Scranton" signifies, e.g.:
· Last diocese to issue
faculties to that individual?
· By
whom? (any reason to doubt the validity of his
consecration?)
· Using
what ordinal? (what edition or year of publication?)
Note that Cordaro is listed as a "
F[athe]
r". So the
first-things-first question for which CathInfo readers are overdue to be provided with a docuмented answer:
· Where &
when was he
ordained as a priest, or otherwise
installed?
· By
whom?· Using
what ordinal? (what year's edition?)
Please understand that I showed Richardson's name
only because he's the docuмent's
only individual who is listed as
not a
priest (I suspect that he's otherwise
completely irrelevant to this
topic). Yes, I'm well aware that "
(not ordained)" is the chronological opposite of "
laicized".
