Business Litigation Section Meeting Breaking Up Is Hard to Do – Church Property Disputes and the Law

What kind of dispute involves property law, trust law, corporate law and constitutional law? And what kind of dispute often results in precisely the opposite outcome one would expect based on a traditional look at the evidence? The answer to both questions is "a church property dispute"! Come enter a Legal Twilight Zone where beneficiaries create trusts, strangers can remove a board of directors, and civil courts enforce ecclesiastical law. This meeting is being offered both in person and virtually. A confirmation email with the virtual link will be sent out prior to the meeting for looking to attend via Zoom. Please reach out to Allison Silva at asilva@nhbar.org if you have any questions.
