NY Supreme Court halts payments to Buffalo abuse fund amid parish merger dispute (CNA)

Catholic Culture Tuesday, 15 July 2025 ()
Following a lawsuit filed by laity, the New York State Supreme Court has temporary halted the transfer of funds from five parishes to the diocese toward a bankruptcy settlement.

In June, the diocese announced that its parishes would contribute a collective $80 million toward the diocese’s recent $150 million bankruptcy settlement with abuse victims, and that parishes would be required to make their allotted contributions by July 15.

The court’s injunction affects only the five parishes—all slated for closure—for which the laity filed the lawsuit.
