A lawsuit alleging years of sexual abuse by a teacher at the Horace Mann school in the Bronx has been settled for an undisclosed amount, an attorney for the plaintiff said Friday.
The suit by Fort Lee attorney Rosemarie Arnold was the only one filed against the elite school after dozens of former students alleged that they were sexually abused by teachers and staff since the 1970s.
Most of the former students were unable to file lawsuits because of New York State’s restrictive statute of limitations, which requires alleged victims of child sex abuse to file suit by the time they turn 23.
