Tier Nature of Abuse Claro Mid Base Claim Value Number of Valued BSA Sexual Abuse Claims Total Estimated Damages

1 Penetration $2,641,865 14,936 $39,458,891,957

2 Oral Sex $1,981,399 12,225 $24,222,597,458

3 Masturbation / Groping $1,320,932 17,868 $23,602,419,707

4 Touching-Unclothed $660,466 $653,861,526 990

5 Touching-Clothed / Photography $330,233 $296,219,085 897

Question: Why can't we know how these claims breakdown by open state, open state with in window claims (or timely filings), love within the current SoL and closed by Shades of Gray? I think we should have access to that information as claimants floating around in those numbers. Yes? No? Who cares...?

For any who are interested. The new ballot. Plain English. Second-grade level. Two-minute read on the treadmill. Enjoy.

The current balloting started in September and results are not fully resolved.  If this starts in March, when is the answer?  September?

March 14th I reckon. since that’s the hearing start date. The vast majority of claims (as represented by the negotiating firms) are in agreement.

Translation:

With in = within

Love = live

Good grief = check your work, Doofus Magoo.

Perhaps I'm 100% confused.  It commonly happens.  My apologies.  Plus, I was vague with "this starts".   

You posted a PDF of a new ballot.  If the new ballot starts in March ... considering first ballot has taken almost six months ... would we face a August / September result?

My sleep deprivation is bleeding over and apologies for lack of clarity. 

My "I reckon" was meant to say I have no idea, but I would sure think they'd want to know before the hearing starts. I don't know how many votes they hope to see flip to accept, but it's not tens of thousands. I am happy to ask the folks at Omni how they see the ballots being processed and tabulated. We've become close personal friends. ;) 

PS - A lot of these votes will come via master ballot from the state court firms.

Oh.  Ok.  The new ballot was not for a 2nd round of voting.  It's part of cleaning up the first round of voting.  I was trying to get context.

Not being the legal guy, I may have simply not seen or understood.  But, I think our unit, as Methodist, is part of the final plan with no other action needed by our local entity?  

What I do not see anywhere is reference to the other claiments that filed to attach to the lawsuit, such as GS of USA and some in process lawsuits?  Any clarifications from someone?

Asked and answered, as follows: "The voting deadline is March 7, 2022, and then Omni’s voting report will be filed March 10, 2022."

Omni FRAUD?!?

A former employee of Omni is alleging they are charging high fees for lower wage workers.  $16 - $20/hour workers are being charged at $80 - $125/hr to BSA.

Also claiming they hired 30 temporary workers who did nothing and they charged BSA.

Also claims knowledge that the ballot count is incorrect, and COO lied to court.

Finally, also claims they did the same in other cases, including USA Gymnastics

The mark-ups are disgusting, but not evidence of fraud.   The PDF starred entries are temp workers.  ... It's the nature of contracting. 

Law firm contacts temp company to get extra workers.  Temp company pays person $16-$20 per hour.  Temp company has cost (insurance, payroll taxes, sales reps, facilities).  That raises their cost $20-$30 per hour.  Temp company wants to make profit so charges $40 to $60 per hour.  Law firm has cost (building, equipment, coordination).  That raises cost to $50-$65.  Law firm wants to make profit.  That doubles again at least to $80-$125.  

It's really no different than buying product from a retail store.  Walmart contracts over-seas and pays $8 per pair of pants, but charges you $35.   Oversea manufacturer pays $2 for material and $1 for labor.  

This sounds more like a disgruntled employee.  

Sad to see myself defending a law firm.

Are you serious?  (Given the tone of many of your posts, I think it is a legitimate question. 😉)

It's over 20 pages long, and not just that--it's over 20 pages of legalese.

mama mia!
