According to the
Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, yesterday a petition for certiorari was filed with the U.S. Supreme Court in
Listecki v. Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors. In the case, the U.S. 7th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that $55 million held by the Archdiocese of Milwaukee in a perpetual care trust fund for maintaining Catholic cemeteries is potentially available in the Archdiocese's bankruptcy to satisfy claims of clergy sex abuse victims.
