Defense attorneys under a gag order could not comment on a ruling that allows a Roman Catholic priest to face trial in a Philadelphia sexual abuse case.
A gag order prevents comment on the case of Monsignor William Lynn, a former ranking official at the Archdiocese of Philadelphia who is accused of using his office to keep a lid on allegations against various priests, the Philadelphia Inquirer said Sunday.
It was not known if an appeal would be filed.
Lynn faces trial at a later date after a judge ruled Friday that he should stand trial with four defendants charged with sexually assaulting young boys in the 1990s. Lynn faces a charge of conspiracy to endanger the welfare of children.
