File footage of Cardinal Philippe Barbarin Pope Francis has rejected the resignation of French cardinal Philippe Barbarin who was handed a six-month suspended jail sentence this month for failing to report sex abuse by a priest under his authority. Barbarin says he will remain in Lyon pending his appeal, but would step back from his job as Archbishop, allowing, at the pope's "suggestion", the local vicar general Yves Baumgarten to run day-to-day affairs.
