Submitted by webadmin on

The Archdiocese of Milwaukee has agreed to enter mediation with its creditors in bankruptcy court, the Associated Press reported on Tuesday. Most of the creditors are victims or alleged victims of sexual abuse by clergy or church workers. The archdiocese filed for chapter 11 protection in January 2011 to deal with sex abuse claims. Bankruptcy Judge Randall Newsome will be the mediator and mediation is expected to start July 20.
