text: That;s interesting. I used to have a friend who had originally been an Episcopal priest and then converted to Catholicism. He had to take a couple of courses at some seminary, but I am pretty sure he said he did not have to be re-ordained. I may be wrong (I was once before;-) but I remember because I specifically asked him that. Perhaps it was the Bishop of London's ordination as bishop that was in question, and not that to the priesthood?
  There is a very informative discussion on the website of the UCCB: www[dot]usccb[dot]org/beliefs-and-teachings/ecumenical-and-interreligious/ecumenical/anglican/anglican-orders-in-catholic-church[dot]cfm
  It's not a simple issue, and a lot has to do with the "intent" of the Anglican ordination.
