联邦法官驳回了威斯康星州AG关于获取密尔瓦基大主教管区破产的 密封性虐待记录的请求 Federal judge denies Wisconsin AG's request to access sealed sex abuse records from Milwaukee Archdiocese's bankruptcy.

一位联邦法官拒绝了威斯康星州总检察长Josh Kaul关于查阅密尔瓦基大主教辖区2015年破产案的密封记录的请求,该破产案的目的是解决神职人员性虐待问题。 A federal judge has denied Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul's request to access sealed records from the Milwaukee Archdiocese's 2015 bankruptcy, which aimed to address clergy sex abuse claims. G. Michael Halfenger法官裁定,总检察长办公室没有提出重审破产判决的有效理由,而且没有将请求通知虐待幸存者的适当计划。 Judge G. Michael Halfenger ruled that the Attorney General's office did not present a valid case for revisiting the bankruptcy decision and lacked a proper plan to notify abuse survivors about the request. 这些大主教管区以前曾与许多索赔人结过案,但数百项索赔仍然密封。 The Archdiocese had previously settled with many claimants, but hundreds of claims remain sealed.
