INTRODUCTION<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This case has now become rather simple: it is just a dialog between Ivy Hill and the Court, rather than a three-way conversation. This is so because DHS does not oppose any of the material facts. Further, DHS takes no position on the merits; it expressly says so in its brief. Thus, in terms of the essential question here\u2014Are the Ivy Hill elders \u201cclergymen\u201d under the CPSL?\u2014the Court need only decide the dispute with Ivy Hill\u2019s proffered facts and arguments. Any contrary positions from DHS are waived. What does remain from DHS is a demand that this Court revisit its Memorandum Opinion regarding standing and indispensable parties. Yet that Opinion remains sound, and has been, in any event, bolstered by a recent Supreme Court decision. Finally, as a last ditch attempt to avoid the merits, DHS now claims this case is time-barred. But that defense, like the now re-hashed ones, is without support under law. Accordingly, the Court should immediately grant Ivy Hill\u2019s Motion for Summary Judgment and enter declarations in Ivy Hill\u2019s favor as set forth in the Motion.1<\/p>\n<p>[Download the PDF document to read the remainder of this 32-page court filing]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>32-0 Petitioner&#8217;s Reply Brief Filed<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1239,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"doc_categories":[141],"doc_tags":[142],"doc_author":[],"file_type":[14],"class_list":["post-2996","dlp_document","type-dlp_document","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","doc_categories-ivy-hill-congregation-versus-pennsylvania-dhs","doc_tags-ivy-hill-congregation-of-jws-versus-pennsylvania","file_type-pdf"],"download_url":"https:\/\/jwchildabuse.org\/xqllht\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/32-0-Petitioners-Reply-Brief-Filed.pdf","file_size":"513 KB","filename":"32-0-Petitioners-Reply-Brief-Filed.pdf","download_count":"","version_history":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/jwchildabuse.org\/xqllht\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/dlp_document\/2996","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/jwchildabuse.org\/xqllht\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/dlp_document"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/jwchildabuse.org\/xqllht\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/dlp_document"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jwchildabuse.org\/xqllht\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jwchildabuse.org\/xqllht\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2996"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jwchildabuse.org\/xqllht\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1239"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/jwchildabuse.org\/xqllht\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2996"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"doc_categories","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jwchildabuse.org\/xqllht\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/doc_categories?post=2996"},{"taxonomy":"doc_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jwchildabuse.org\/xqllht\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/doc_tags?post=2996"},{"taxonomy":"doc_author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jwchildabuse.org\/xqllht\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/doc_author?post=2996"},{"taxonomy":"file_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jwchildabuse.org\/xqllht\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/file_type?post=2996"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
