Description:
Laws which allow institutions to block historical sexual abuse cases from ever reaching court could be removed. A Four Corners investigation found churches and other groups have been granted permanent stays on civil claims against them, because too much time had passed. Now, a private member’s bill aims to limit the practice, so survivors can get their day in court.
