Gerald Robinson update

Mark Davis, attorney for Survivor Doe and Spouse Doe, filed a motion involving their legal battle with Gerald Robinson and the Toledo Catholic Diocese.
Here's a copy of The Blade article about the motion that was published today:

Lawyer asks court to force Toledo Catholic Diocese to provide data


The attorney for a woman suing Toledo priest Gerald Robinson after accusing him of satanic ritual abuse has filed a motion asking that the Toledo Catholic Diocese be forced to provide documents and interrogatories related to the case.

Attorney Mark Davis, representing the Toledo woman who sued anonymously as Survivor Doe with her husband Spouse Doe, said in a motion filed yesterday in Lucas County Common Pleas Court that the diocese has not yet provided pertinent information despite repeated requests. The motion requests that Judge Ruth Ann Franks order diocese officials to "fully answer the plaintiff's requests for production of documents and interrogatories."

The diocese will have a chance to respond to the motion.

Survivor Doe, now in her mid 40s, claims she was repeatedly raped and tortured by Robinson and Toledoan Jerry Mazuchowski in satanic rituals starting in 1968.

Her civil suit was filed in April, 2005. A May, 2009, trial date has been set.

In an unrelated case, Robinson was convicted in May, 2006, for the 1980 murder of Sister Margaret Ann Pahl and is serving a 15-years-to-life term in a southern Ohio prison. The Sixth District Court of Appeals recently affirmed his conviction.
