Syracuse, N.Y.— The Syracuse Roman Catholic Diocese reached a settlement in a bankruptcy case to pay sex abuse survivors $100 million.
The settlement is the second largest contribution by a Roman Catholic institution and its affiliates in any Roman Catholic bankruptcy case, according to a news release from offices of LaFave, Wein & Frament and Jeff Anderson & Associates. Together the offices represent over 120 sex abuse survivors in the Syracuse diocese.
The announcement came Thursday in a joint news release from the diocese and the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors. The diocese and committee officials said the settlement was reached as part of the diocese’s bankruptcy case that was filed in June 2020.
“This settlement is a significant step forward in the healing process for over 400 victims in this case,” according to Kevin Braney, of Denver, Colorado, who serves as chair of official committee. “I wish to extend my heartfelt gratitude to my fellow survivors and their families, for their endurance as they have patiently awaited this news.”
The diocese at one point released a list of 57 sexually abusive priests.
