The attorney representing Archbishop Anthony Apuron in four of his clergy sexual abuse cases isn’t proceeding with out-of-court settlement. According to Attorney Jacque Terlaje, it’s too soon to do so.
This is because Archbishop Apuron is currently undergoing a canonical trial in Rome. According to Attorney Terlaje, a decision is expected to be made in the summer months.
Attorney David Lujan who represents the plaintiffs says he too can’t proceed with out-of-court settlement until he’s received financial documents from Hope and Healing Guam, specifically the Archdiocese of Agana’s insurance policies and audited financial statements dating back to 2010.
