Esquire, the harshness of your reply tends to make one believe you might be on shaky legal ground. Admitting a known trouble maker back into a civil institution would construe those that did accepting liability for his actions.

Good luck at summary judgment

Esquire, do you really think a civil jury isn’t going to azz rape the diocese on this?

It won’t get to a jury. It may not even get into discovery

Because of the law, or because an STM alumni is a lawyer and will protect his “school” with a loose interpretation of the law?

Option C: it will be cheaper in both money and publicity for everyone involved so they’ll settle.

Question. If they settle for one million, does that come from the school endowment or is there a slush fund for general catholic settlements that they can draw from?

I posted what the Louisiana Supreme Court said about when and how a school board can be held liable for the criminal conduct of students.
Give me your best argument for constructive notice of this particular act by the kid.

The diocese wouldn’t stand a chance in hell in a civil suit. Gilbert Gauthier would be front and center. Too bad pretentiousness isn’t criminal or the entire diocese and membership would be guilty as charged.

I’m not well versed on the case, but if it’s the diocese doing the settling, my money is on the latter. This is the Catholic Church we are talking about. They’re one of the wealthiest entities on earth with an unmatched history of making things go away with money

This case will not go to a verdict, and no one involved is shooting for that.

That was a public school board case. Is that sufficient for precedence in a private school case? One could argue that a private school or diocese is subject to a higher standard than public school (I’m not trying to talk shite/not a lawyer/but that would be my argument)

Esquire, have you heard of jury nullification?
The diocese is scared shitless of what the general public thinks about their church.
Agree that there would be zero chance of this getting to a jury trial because the diocese would lose. Always easier to get ND’s on all involved and pay the piso.

1. You have the school allowing a known disciplinary violator to stay enrolled.
2. You have a dangerous chemical which is probably labeled as poison with the warning of keep away from children.
3. The chemical was apparently stored somewhere where the children could access it.
4. You have kids doing what kids do.
The sum total is a viable theory of failure to protect and supervise children by Diocese employees in loco parentis. It’s good enough to get to a jury.

No legal knowledge here, but I'd listen to the ND fan on this.
