New York Cardinal Timothy Dolan is closely following the case of a New Jersey priest who defied an agreement to stay away from children.

[]

The Rev. Michael Fugee resigned last week. The 52-year-old was convicted in 2003 of fondling a boy in Wyckoff. However, that verdict was vacated because of judicial error. Fugee entered a program to avoid retrial and agreed to never again work with children.

However, he attended youth retreats involving a church in Colts Neck.

There have been calls for Newark Archbishop John Myers to resign. The newspaper reports the archdiocese has hired a noted lawyer while the Bergen County Prosecutor's Office investigates the case.
