Motion to dismiss lawsuit against priest, church, denied

A motion to dismiss Glenna McKitterick's wrongful dismissal/sexual harassment lawsuit against Father Phillip Bucher, Bishop John J. Liebrecht, the Roman Catholic Diocese of Springfield-Cape Girardeau, Our Lady of the Lake Catholic Church and Our Lady of the Ozarks Catholic Church was denied, according to an order filed today in federal court.
The decision came on a technicality since the motion to dismiss was for Ms. McKitterick's original complaint and she has since filed an amended complaint in U. S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri.
