HELENA — Victims of sexual abuse by employees of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Helena have until August 11 to file a claim if they wish to be part of a settlement that now includes more than 360 potential victims.

Facing the claims, the diocese declared bankruptcy in late January, part of a settlement with the diocese’s accusers.

The deal included the creation of a $15 million fund for victims.

The August 11 deadline (4:30 p.m. Mountain Time) follows a May 6th order by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Montana.
