The head of the state Senate Judiciary Committee was labeled “biased”
and his oversight at a hearing on extending the statue of limitations
for child sex abuse victims to file civil lawsuits called “legislative
ethics at its worst” because of his law firm’s representation of
Catholic interests contesting a similar statute in Delaware.
State Sen. Stewart J. Greenleaf, R-12, of Willow Grove, headed the Judiciary Committee hearing on HB 1947 Monday. He chairs that committee. The bill would extend the time child sex abuse victims can file civil lawsuits 20 years to when they are 50 years old.
