Documents filed in a civil lawsuit accusing a former suburban priest of sexually abusing a teenage boy more than 30 years ago won't be made public unless a judge agrees first to release them.
The ruling by DuPage County Judge Stephen Culliton saddened the 48-year-old suburban man who filed the suit in 2003, alleging he had been sexually abused by a priest at his Lombard parish while a teenager in 1970.
"It was a little bit of a disappointment,'' the alleged victim said of the ruling.
