Dispute Over Insurance Coverage For Marianist Order Is In Court

Today's Pueblo (CO) Chieftan discusses a pending federal lawsuit in Denver over the extent to which policies issued by North River Insurance Co. cover sexual abuse claims against the Society of Mary by former students at Roncalli High School in Pueblo. The insurer claims that only the Diocese of Pueblo is covered, and that the Society of Mary is not an additional insured under the policy. Marianists teachers staffed the high school for the diocese.
