Teams of lawyers and various rulings came and went, all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. Judgments against the church hit $30 million, then dropped to $2.5 million. But the Church of Scientology never paid -- until yesterday, when officials wrote a check for more than $8.6 million to end the case, one of the longest-running in California history." http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A63143-2002May9.html?FACTnet Founder of religious compound arrested on sex charges; Egyptian-style complex raided 5/9/02 AP EATONTON, Ga.
