Submitted by webadmin on

A bankruptcy judge on Friday outlined a plan to address some of the most contentious issues in the Archdiocese of Milwaukee's chapter 11 proceeding, which has stretched on for nearly four years, Dow Jones Daily Bankruptcy News reported today. At a hearing at the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Milwaukee, Judge Susan Kelley was emphatic that the case would proceed on a faster schedule, after a second round of mediation talks earlier this month failed to produce a settlement with hundreds of sexual-abuse claimants.
