Description

[3 N.Y.2d 476 Page 480] This action is for a judgment declaring plaintiff Sidener to be the rector of the Episcopalian Church of the Holy Trinity
in Brooklyn, and restraining defendants from interfering with the conduct of religious services therein or with the property,
funds and management of the church. The Official Referee dismissed the complaint after a trial but the Appellate Division
reversed and ordered judgment as demanded in the complaint. The only real question is: were there lawful quorums present at
the two vestry meetings which by vote of a majority of the whole number of authorized members chose plaintiff Sidener as rector?
