Infidelity in the Diocese of Linz, Austria
Catholic Church Conservation ^ | 22 January 2007 | Gillibrand

Last year, just one priest was ordained in the Diocese of Linz. The ordination had in fact been postponed as the candidate had called for an open revolt against Rome. After full and as we can now see less than frank discussions with the Bishop, the ordination went ahead, the Bishop giving himself cover by ordaining two FSSP priests using the old books at a separate ordination around the same time.

Father Golatz has now broken every bound of discretion and published a new interview in the Standard, one of the main Austrian newspapers. The Bishop has issued a statement to say he is disappointed but there is not enough evidence to proceed against him. Judge for yourself below. A translation of the Bishop's statement will follow shortly.
