(AP) New Ulm, Minn. An attorney who represents two women who had sued the Catholic Diocese of New Ulm says a settlement has been reached in the molestation case.

The women had filed a civil suit against the diocese, alleging that the Reverend David A. Roney had molested them while serving the Church of St. Mary in Willmar from 1967 to 1980. The priest is now dead.

Attorney Jeff Anderson says the diocese and his clients had reached a settlement. The women were identified only as Jane Doe 43-A and Jane Doe 43-B.
