No Settlement For Church Abuse Cases

San Francisco, California --

Dozens of sex abuse cases against the Roman Catholic Church will go to trial.

An Alameda County Superior Court judge ordered a mandatory settlement conference for Monday morning on 54 separate cases against the Roman Catholic Bishop of Oakland.

One case already going to trial this week is against retired priest Robert Ponciroli.

Ponciroli is accused of abusing a former altar boy at St. Ignatius Church in Antioch in the late 70s and early 80s.

There are about 100 cases against the San Francisco Diocese, also going forward, with no settlement.
