Maryland Court of Appeals to Rule on Ministerial Exception

The Spring 2006 issue of the Maryland State Bar Association Section of Labor and Employment Law published “Doing God’s work? Maryland Court of Appeals will Review how the Ministerial Exception Applies to Religious Employees.” The article discusses Archdiocese of Washington v. Moerson, 389 Md. 124, 883 A.2d 914 (2005). In Moerson, the Maryland Court of Appeals is faced with deciding whether the ministerial exception applies to a church organist's tort claims against his former employer.
