Court - "Kentucky Bar leader tried to stall abuse deal, records show"
Andrew Wolfson has an interesting story today in the Louisville Courier Journal that begins:
The president of the Kentucky Bar Association allegedly tried to block the $84 million settlement of the Diocese of Covington priest-abuse case so she could extract a larger fee for herself, according to affidavits filed in bar proceedings.The documents allege that Barbara Bonar, working behind the scenes, helped write an objection for a former client to the settlement and tried to drum up negative news stories to derail it -- even though she had been a lead lawyer for the 380 victims.
