How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- stating that, even assuming defendants owed plaintiffs fiduciary duty to disclose abuse, “conduct relied on as a basis for equitable estoppel cease[d] to be operational” when plaintiffs reached adulthood (internal quotation marks and alterations omitted)
- finding “no basis for a claim that any fiduciary duty [between priests and children in their care] continued after plaintiffs were adults”
- finding the plaintiff did “not allege any specific misrepresentation to them by defendants, or any deceptive conduct sufficient to constitute a basis for equitable estoppel”
- rejecting equitable estoppel as matter of law despite claim that archdioceses “engaged in a corrupt campaign and a pattern of concealment” of priests’ child abuse
- “The doctrine of equitable estoppel applies where it would be unjust to allow a defendant to assert a statute of limitations defense.”
- “[E]quitable estoppel will benefit Doe only if she has pleaded facts that, if proved, will demonstrate the efforts of the Archdiocese to prevent, her from filing a lawsuit.”
