Class Action Victim Alleges Coercion By Shannon Kettler WCPO March 26, 2009 http://www.wcpo.com/news/local/story/Class-Action-Victim-Alleges-Coercion/YNRnmJA_bE2ir2R_povgKw.cspx
A new legal battle is brewing among lawyers who worked on the class action lawsuit against the Diocese of Covington over allegations of sexual abuse by priests. Attorney Barbara Bonar has filed a motion for a new trial in Boone County Court. Court documents state a class action victim whose name was not revealed has stepped forward claiming attorneys Stan Chesley and Robert Steinberg coerced the victim to lie in order to block Bonar from getting attorney fees. A call to Chesley's office was not returned. A hearing is scheduled in Boone County Court for next month. Contact: jessica.noll@kypost.com |
