The court order came near the close of day Wednesday. It read, "No individual, organization, association or entity, whether incorporated or not, may use, assume, or adopt in any way, directly or indirectly, the registered names and the seal or mark of The Protestant Episcopal Church in the Diocese of South Carolina."
Following an emergency ex parte hearing, South Carolina Circuit Court Judge Diane S. Goodstein made and published her seven-page ruling - then darkness fell.
Judge Goodstein issued her order at 5:11 p.m. EST, on Wed., Jan. 23, 2013. The restraining order also states that the three corporate names registered by The Diocese of South Carolina cannot be used by any other entity, association, organization or individuals. The legally protected names are: "The Diocese of South Carolina;" "The Protestant Episcopal Church in the Diocese of South Carolina," and "The Episcopal Diocese of South Carolina."
