LEGAL STUDIES: Donna Matthews v. Vera Adams - By Dr. Ben Townsend
INTRO: The following case gives us the understanding of the jurisdiction of courts over a corporate church. I simply highlight the word "corporation" to draw the same attention to it that the court wanted drawn. They did not see this as intrusion into a "church", but merely an entity which was under corporate law. Most opinions are lengthy, but this one is not. A good understanding of the difference between how a court views incorporated versus unincorporated churches is clearly seen here.
