Pennsylvania’s Superior Court on Tuesday ruled that two men who had sued the Archdiocese of Philadelphia for alleged sex abuse missed their legal deadlines to file.

The decision affirmed a Philadelphia judge’s separate rulings against Francis Finnegan, who alleged he was abused from 1968 to 1979, and Philip Gaughan, who alleged he was abused from 1994 to 1997.
