SCITUATE (CBS) — A Norfolk Superior Court judge has ruled that the friends of St. Frances must end their decade-long vigil.

The judge said that parishioners occupying the closed Scituate church must leave by May 26. A counter claim that was filed by parishioners has been dismissed.

A group of parishioners has held vigil at the church for the last 10 years, after the Boston Archdiocese ordered it closed as part of its 2004 reconfiguration.
