those who have been released to take an assignment in
another diocese or institution; those who have taken a leave due to
illness; those who have taken a leave from active ministry for personal reasons;
those placed on administrative leave. Most of those who are not expected to return to

have left active ministry for personal reasons. (They are included in this report for the
sake of consistency as canonically they still belong to the Diocese of Brooklyn.) 12 priests
are due to return to assignment; 84 are unlikely to return.
