Christian Brothers seek bankruptcy amid abuse claims
The Christian Brothers Institute, the North American order running schools, filed for Chapter 11 in New York amid more than 50 abuse claims. Most cases arise in the Seattle area linked to Briscoe Memorial School near Kent, with names like Edward Courtney involved. O'Dea High and St. Alphonsus School figures are connected. The Seattle Archdiocese owns O'Dea, and trustees voted unanimously to seek relief to curb deficits. The filing contrasts with the Jesuits in the Northwest, which faced about 200 claims in 2009.
