The clock is ticking for the Diocese of Rockville Centre as a judge issues a timeline for a settlement to be reached with survivors of child sex abuse.
A judge says the diocese has roughly 100 days to reach a settlement. This comes nearly three years after the diocese filed for bankruptcy when hundreds of survivors came forward through the Child Victims Act.
To date, 228 people have filed claims against Diocese of Rockville Centre parishes.
