1440 - The Archdiocese of New York has agreed to pay more than $800M to settle decades of sexual abuse claims against clergy and staff, Catholic Church officials announced Friday. The agreement avoids a potential bankruptcy filing by the archdiocese and offers a minimum $250K lump-sum payout to roughly 1,300 plaintiffs (specific cases may seek higher compensation based on the extent of abuse).
