Raine Maida on marriage, music and the Maritimes | SaltWireST. JOHN'S, N.L. — The back of Courtroom 5 at Newfoundland and Labrador Supreme Court in St. John’s was filled with boxes Friday, each containing decades' worth of documents. There were transcripts from preliminary hearings, previously filed affidavits, and binders organized by colour, labelled with the surname of a local priest convicted of sexually abusing children.

The insurance company has denied liability, saying the RCECSJ’s knowledge of the sexual abuse and failure to disclose it rendered its insurance policy invalid. Buckingham read aloud a 2011 affidavit from Father Ronald MacIntyre, who said he had been told by a young man about an incident with Hickey. MacIntyre concluded the incident had progressed to sexual contact and, with the youth’s permission, brought it to the attention of the vicar-general, who told him, “Leave it with me and we’ll take care of it.”

“I have no information about that, other than what you read about the fact that Hickey confronted the student. It would seem that he must have been talked to,” Hundt replied. In 2009, the company refused coverage to the RCECSJ on the same basis when another person came forward with a claim involving Hickey. The church took the matter back to court, and Guardian argued it should not be bound by the previous order, as it had received new information about the extent of church officials’ knowledge of Hickey’s actions.
