Complaint refiled with Pittsburgh Presbytery over lesbian wedding ceremony
Oakland minister says she broke no church laws

A Florida minister has again filed a complaint against the Rev. Janet Edwards, who faced charges in church court for marrying a lesbian couple before the court determined last year that the charges were filed four days too late.
The Rev. James Yearsley said he refiled the accusation with Pittsburgh Presbytery, charging that Ms. Edwards defied her vows and the constitution of the Presbyterian Church (USA), which prohibits same-sex marriages and bars pastors from performing them.
No details on a timeline yet. You may recall that I attended the church court proceedings for this case last year.
