Someone will probably come here.

Lee "inhibited" Phil Ashey, the rector of South Riding parish, so
he'll likely do the same for Martyn.  All this means is that his
license to serve as a priest or rector in "THE Espicopal Church" has been
revoked - which seems fair to me, since conservative churches have effectively
"inhibited" Lee by not letting him do confirmations, etc.
