"Supreme Court Greenlights $2.5 Billion Boy Scouts Sex-Abuse Settlement"

The Supreme Court denied an emergency request to pause a $2.4 billion settlement plan for sex abuse lawsuits against the Boy Scouts of America, allowing the deal to proceed. The settlement involves over 82,000 claims of childhood sexual abuse, with more than 86% of victims supporting the agreement. The court's decision is significant as it may provide insight into how the justices will approach a similar opioid settlement case involving Purdue Pharma.
