In this conversation, former PCA General Assembly Moderators Howie Donahoe and Mel Duncan join Derek Radney to discuss the proposed revision to BCO 34-1 and the doctrine of assumption of original jurisdiction.
Drawing on decades of experience in the PCA's judicial process, they trace the history of BCO 34-1, explain why previous attempts to revise it fell short, and walk through how the current proposal seeks to provide a clearer, more workable process while preserving the Presbyterian principle of respecting lower courts.
