Catholic AnswerOfficially, there is no real term "parish Priest" but it is usually used to designate a priest that works in a parish as opposed to a priest in a monastery, or teaching school, or a missionary, etc. There are dozens of jobs that a priest could be doing, and working in the parish is just one of them. Most "parish priests" are diocesan priests, in other words they are attached to the local bishop and do not belong to a religious order, although there are some Order priests doing parish work.

If a Catholic Priest does NOT fulfill the duties as stated below how does a parish remove their priest from duty?

What duties are you referring to?... there is nothing stated. Are you referring to the Pastor (Parish Priest) or the Associate (Parochial Vicar). Only the bishop may remove the Parish Priest. Do not attempt a petition or public outcry as this would cause scandal within the community, but deal directly with the bishop by having individual parishioners write letters to the bishop, explaining in detail what it is that you think that how your priest is not fulfilling his duties.
