Christian Brothers abuse survivors sue entity that inherited vast property wealth

Abuse survivors of the Christian Brothers in Australia are attempting to make Edmund Rice Education Australia (EREA) — the entity that received vast land and property transfers from the order — liable for compensation claims. EREA is fighting the move, and a Victorian judge noted the case has "high court written all over it." The Christian Brothers face hundreds of current and future abuse cases estimated to be worth $774 million AUD.
