The case has been brought by the former Archivist at Granada Cathedral
The Archbishop who has been in the news in recent months with protests in Albuñol against his decision to transfer their village priest, is in court next month, in a slander case brought against him by another priest.

The charges against the Archbishop of Granada, Francisco Javier Martínez, which also include moral bullying, relate to a letter in which he is said to have accused the priest of appropriating the copyright to a book about Granada Cathedral. The priest was at the time the Cathedral Archivist.

The case comes to Criminal Court No. 5 in Granada on 14th November, where, as newspaper Granada Hoy reports, the Archbishop will appear before the judge who instructed Marbella’s Malaya case until the end of July this year, Judge Miguel Ángel Torres.
