April 2022: The MDL Paraquat class action judge will have a status conference on April 1st to review where the litigation is headed and how best to take the bellwether lawsuits forward for trial in November 2022. 44 new paraquat lawsuits have been added to the MDL in the last two weeks. At this pace, April 2022 will be the busiest month for new files yet. Last week, the parties filed their class-action bellwether picks with the Paraquat MDL judge. Those choices, however, have not been made public.
May 2022: In the last month, over 50 new cases have been added to the Paraquat Lawsuit Multidistrict Litigation (MDL). A group of six patients was recently selected by the Paraquat MDL court for the initial Paraquat Parkinson's disease bellwether trials. As a result, the first trial in November 2022 is approaching soon. The strategy is to select 16 paraquat claims from among the almost 1000 Parkinson's disease litigation claims filed. Following some limited fact discovery in these instances, paraquat attorneys on both sides submitted a preference list to the MDL court, ranking the 16 cases in order of priority. Attorneys for plaintiffs seek the finest facts for their clients, while defense attorneys want the worst. The judge whittled the list down to six Paraquat claims based on these rankings.

From your first private call, we listen and move at your pace. We gather records, interview witnesses sensitively, and retain experts to prove institutional responsibility. Most cases resolve without a public trial; if litigation is needed, we protect your identity to the fullest extent allowed. Our fee is contingency-based—you pay nothing unless we recover compensation for you. If you experienced clergy sexual abuse anywhere in Connecticut—whether decades ago or more recently—reach out for a confidential case review. We will explain your exact deadline under Connecticut law, outline your options, and, if you choose, start protecting your rights immediately
If you were sexually abused in a Connecticut institution—at a school, church, youth program, group home, juvenile detention, or another organization—you are not alone. Our trauma-informed team helps survivors pursue confidential civil claims against the institutions that failed to protect them. There are no upfront fees, and we only get paid if we recover compensation for you.
Connecticut gives many survivors a long time to file, but deadlines still apply and evidence is easier to secure when you start early. Under Connecticut law, if the abuse happened on or after October 1, 2019—or if you were 18, 19, or 20 when it happened—you generally have until your 51st birthday to file a claim. If the abuse occurred before October 1, 2019 while you were a minor, the earlier version of the statute typically allowed suits until about age 48.

Catholic Church & Catholic Schools
In Bridgeport, the Diocese agreed in 2003 to pay $21 million to 40 survivors who alleged abuse by 16 priests—one of the earliest large, public settlements in the state.
In Hartford, the Archdiocese paid $22 million in 2005 to resolve claims by 43 people. Years later, the Archdiocese disclosed that by January 2019 it had paid about $50.6 million to settle 142+ claims and released a list of credibly accused clergy.
In Norwich, after filing Chapter 11 in 2021 amid dozens of lawsuits—many tied to the former Mount St. John school—a federal judge in May 2025 approved a reorganization plan creating a $31 million fund for survivors.
Boarding Schools
Connecticut boarding schools have faced significant claims. The Hotchkiss School has acknowledged and resolved historical abuse allegations, and court records reflect settlement agreements and related enforcement litigation. Kent School faces ongoing lawsuits, including recent privacy-exploitation claims tied to a former employee; those cases are pending.
Public Schools
In 2024, Stamford Public Schools paid $2.4 million to settle a student’s civil rights case tied to sexual abuse.
Juvenile Detention / Group Homes
In October 2024, a lawsuit alleging a 14-year-old was raped at a state-funded Bridge Family Center group home in Harwinton was settled; a related employee has since been criminally sentenced. Connecticut’s Manson Youth Institution has also been under federal oversight for unconstitutional conditions involving youth.
