In the Roman Catholic Tradition, the pastor is in charge of his associates. The "ordinary" (chief diocesan bishop) is oversees the pastor. However, depending on the size of the diocese, "deaneries" or "Vicariate Councils" (usually headed by an auxiliary bishop' [ a 'helping' bishop who aids the 'ordinary' representing him at various functions and confirmations,] would try to intervene in any dispute.) The 'ordinary' always has the last word.
