SANTA ANA, Calif. - A judge ruled that two conservative parishes that broke away from the Episcopal Diocese of Los Angeles were the rightful owners of their church buildings and other property.

The diocese had argued that it held the property in trust for All Saints Church in Long Beach and St. David's Church in North Hollywood.

Those parishes, along with St. James Church in Newport Beach, pulled out of the six-county Los Angeles Diocese and the 2.3-million member national Episcopal Church in August 2004 following the ordination of a gay bishop in the Diocese of New Hampshire. They announced they were placing themselves under the jurisdiction of the Anglican Church in Uganda.
