-Caveat Lector- Dear List, Below please find information on these articles. Sincerely, Neil Brick Sex Case May Pry Open Finances of LDS Church - 7/17/01 - by Elizabeth Neff The Salt Lake Tribune "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is fighting to keep its finances confidential in an Oregon lawsuit seeking more than $1.5 billion in damages from the church. Plaintiff Jeremiah Scott, 22, of California, sued the church in Oregon state court after an LDS ward Sunday school teacher was convicted of repeatedly sexually abusing him in Portland when he was 11 years old. The suit alleges negligence and intentional infliction of emotional distress, claiming church officials knew Franklin Richard Curtis was a pedophile, but did not warn Scott's parents before they took Curtis into their home. Church attorneys have told Scott the church is able to pay punitive damages of $162 million, or twice the amount of the largest punitive damages award in Oregon history. excerpt from http://www.sltrib.com/07172001/utah/114274.htm Church fights plaintiff's attempt for force financial disclosure - AP - 7/17/01 Salt Lake City - "The Mormon church is fighting a sex-abuse victim's attempt to force it to disclose financial information." excerpt from http://www.arizonarepublic.com/arizona/articles/0717az-mormonsuirt-ON.html <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
