WILMINGTON, Del. (AP) -- A Delaware bankruptcy judge is resuming a hearing to determine whether he will approve the Catholic Diocese of Wilmington's reorganization plan.
The plan centers on a $77 million settlement with some 150 alleged victims of priest sex abuse. In return, the diocese, its parishes and affiliated entities would be released from legal claims related to the church sex abuse scandal. The plan also requires church officials to turn over internal documents detailing how the diocese handled pedophile priests.
