An effort to ban another bishop from his religious duties was not supported by The Episcopal Church's senior bishops.

Diocese of Pittsburgh Bishop Robert Duncan received a letter Tuesday from the head of the national church, Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori, who said she had sought permission from the three senior bishops to inhibit him.

The bishops did not give such consent but certified that Duncan had "abandoned the Communion of this Church."

Duncan received the letter just days after the senior bishops gave their consent to inhibit Bishop John-David Schofield whose San Joaquin, Calif., diocese voted last month to break from the national church.
