Anglican cleric files legal objection to royal wedding
An Anglican cleric filed a last-minute objection yesterday to Britain's royal wedding, maintaining that Prince Charles, divorced from the late Princess Diana, could not remarry while heir to the British throne.
Father Paul Williamson, 56, a Church of England vicar at St George's Church in west London, was the first person to arrive at civic offices in Windsor which opened specifically to register protests against the marriage.
Prince Charles married Camilla Parker Bowles at 12:30 p.m. (1130 GMT) in a civil ceremony in Windsor, a town west of London used by the royal family as a weekend retreat.
