Prof. Soper Quoted in MPR Article on Possible Archdiocese Bankruptcy

Professor Christopher Soper was quoted in a Minnesota Public Radio story about a possible bankruptcy filing by the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis. The Archdiocese faces significant potential costs related to allegations of clergy abuse. "The idea is to resolve past, present and future claims in one go," said Soper. "To set aside a pool of money so that the church can go on with a fresh start, while still providing equitable money for victims."
