Lawyers for Msgr. William J. Lynn have
asked the Pennsylvania Supreme Court to reject prosecutors' appeal of a
court decision that granted Lynn a new trial, calling the request
"breathtakingly dishonest."
In court documents filed Tuesday, lawyers for Lynn, who was granted a new trial in December after being convicted for his role in supervising Catholic priests who molested children, contend that there are no grounds for appeal under state rules.
