Proposal exempts parishes
Tucson, Arizona --
A new agreement that's been proposed as part of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Tucson's bankruptcy case specifically outlines why its parishes are separate entities and therefore not responsible for paying diocesan debts associated with the sexual-abuse crisis.
The revised "disclosure statement" was filed in federal bankruptcy court this week. The statement, which accompanies the diocese's federal Chapter 11 reorganization plan, has not been approved by creditors and will be the subject of a hearing scheduled for 10:30 a.m. March 25 before federal bankruptcy Judge James M. Marlar.
The statement says parishes may be asked to help pay settlements with plaintiffs who have valid clergy sexual-abuse claims associated with the bankruptcy.
