Franciscan Order sues prayer group for occupying Clonmel church after caretaker agreement expired.

The Franciscan Order has filed a High Court case against the Abbey House Prayer Group for unauthorized use of the Friary Church in Clonmel, Ireland. The group had a caretaker agreement to use the church for services but refused to leave after it expired, leading to a sit-in. The Franciscans want the group to vacate, citing trespassing and safety concerns, while the prayer group seeks to keep the church open and has offered to buy it.
