0160; The United States Supreme Court denied the request of the Diocese of Bridgeport, filed on a paid-fee basis by its law firm Mayer Brown, to keep the discovery documents from the settlement of clergy sex abuse cases sealed. After the settlement, four media outlets including THE NEW YORK TIMES and THE HARTFORD CURRANT requested through the courts access to that material and was granted it.
