The Diocese of Alexandria Bankruptcy Bar Date: June 8, 2026 — and What It Means for Survivors If you are reading this page, you may have been carrying something for years — maybe decades — that you told no one about, or told only one person. What happened to you was real. It was not your fault. And the institution that allowed it now has a federal court deadline attached to it that changes everything about your right to compensation. The Diocese of Alexandria filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Louisiana set a bar date of June 8, 2026. That is the last day a survivor of sexual abuse connected to any diocesan entity can file a claim. After that date, the claim is permanently discharged — erased by the bankruptcy process, no matter how strong it would have been, no matter when the abuse occurred, no matter when you first connected what happened to you to the harm it caused. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC. We built this page because the news told you a deadline exists. It did not tell you what the deadline means, how…

The Moment You Are In You may have heard the news and felt something you cannot quite name. Not relief, exactly. Not closure. Something older than that — the recognition that an institution you were taught to trust is finally, publicly, admitting what was done to you. The Diocese of Alexandria filed for bankruptcy on October 31, 2025, and in the bishop’s own letter, the words were plain: “We are at this moment for one reason: some priests sexually abused minors.” If you are a survivor of clergy sexual abuse in central Louisiana — whether it happened in Alexandria, Pineville, or any of the 13 civil parishes this diocese covers — you are reading this at a moment that is both an opening and a clock. The opening: Louisiana law has revived the right to file a claim no matter how long ago the abuse occurred, through a lookback window that does not close until June 14, 2027. The clock: a bankruptcy court will set its own deadline — a bar date — that may arrive sooner than that, and if you miss it, your claim is gone forever. You do not have to know yet whether you want to…

The New Orleans Archdiocese $230 Million Clergy Abuse Settlement: What Survivors and Families Need to Know If you are reading this page, you may be one of the roughly 600 survivors whose claims forced the second-oldest Catholic archdiocese in the United States into federal bankruptcy court — or you may be someone who was abused by clergy in Louisiana and is only now learning that the law changed in ways that might still give you a path forward. Either way, what happened in a New Orleans federal courtroom in December 2025 was not just a number on a page. It was the end of more than five years of litigation that an institution initially believed it could settle for less than $7 million — and that ultimately cost it $230 million, with another $75 million possibly coming from its insurer, plus more than $50 million in legal fees it spent fighting the very people it had failed to protect. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm. We are a trial firm that takes cases in Louisiana, and we built this page because the settlement confirmation raises questions that general news coverage does not answer: How will the points system…

Baton Rouge Hazing Death Lawsuit: The Homicide Ruling, Commotio Cordis, and the Fight Against Underground Fraternity Pledging If you are reading this, you may be a parent who just buried a child. You may be a student who watched a friend collapse and could not save him. You may be a family member who received the phone call that no parent should ever get. We are writing to you — the person at the kitchen table at 2 a.m. with a folder of questions and a grief that has no bottom. What happened to a 20-year-old mechanical engineering student and member of the Human Jukebox marching band at Southern University was not an accident. The East Baton Rouge Parish Coroner said so in plain language: this was a homicide, caused by cardiac arrest from a blunt-force blow to the chest. That single word — homicide — is what changes this from a campus tragedy into a civil rights and wrongful death case. And that word is the foundation of everything we do from here. The law that protects your family in Louisiana is specific, and it is short on time. Louisiana has an exceptionally short one-year prescriptive period for delictual…

LSU TKE Hazing in Baton Rouge: What Happened and What Your Rights Are If you are reading this page, you already know what happened on October 9, 2025. You know that active members of the Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity — the Beta-Phi Chapter at Louisiana State University — struck pledges at two separate off-campus locations in Baton Rouge. You may be one of the pledges who was hit. You may be a parent who just learned your son came home with bruises he would not explain. You may be a witness who saw what happened and is trying to decide whether coming forward is loyalty or betrayal. We need to talk to you before the fraternity finishes the conversation it is already having with itself. Three TKE members — Logan Greneaux, 20, Brody Tanner, 19, and Thomas Lavergne, 22 — have been cited by LSU police for principal to criminal hazing and simple battery. They were issued summons, not booked into jail, because the charges are misdemeanors. More arrests may follow. The fraternity released a statement saying it “proactively self-reported” and does “not condone violence of any kind.” That statement is not an apology. It is a legal strategy, and…

Baton Rouge LSU Hazing Lawyer — TKE Battery, the Max Gruver Act, and Your Family’s Rights You are reading this at a hour when nobody should have to be awake. Maybe your son called you from his dorm room, voice shaking, trying to explain what happened to him at the hands of people who called themselves his brothers. Maybe you are the student yourself, sitting in the dark, scrolling through your phone, trying to decide whether what happened to you was “enough” to call a lawyer about — whether you are allowed to call it what it was when the whole fraternity is already circling you, when the group chat has gone quiet in a way that feels like a warning. Maybe you saw the news that two members of the Tau Kappa Epsilon chapter at Louisiana State University were arrested on criminal hazing charges, and you recognized the date, the chapter, the locations, and your stomach dropped because you know your son was there. We want you to hear something right now, before anything else: what happened to you or your child is a crime. Not a prank, not a tradition, not “boys being boys,” not something that happens…

Lake Charles Fraternity Hazing Lawyer — McNeese Kappa Sigma Pledge Hazing Lawsuit You are reading this at an hour when most of campus is asleep. Something happened to you, or to someone you love, inside that Kappa Sigma house on the McNeese State University campus — and you are trying to figure out whether what was done was “bad enough” to be illegal, whether you have the right to do something about it, and whether anyone would even believe you. Let us answer the first question right now. Yes. What was done to those pledges was hazing under Louisiana law. The videos that complainants say exist, the cease-and-desist letter the university sent on October 7, the two students arrested on criminal hazing charges, the apology the fraternity’s own acting president wrote acknowledging “the harm that this alleged hazing incident has caused” — these are not the signs of a system that caught a problem in time. They are the signs of a system that almost let the whole thing slide, and they are your starting point. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC. We are a trial firm that takes Louisiana hazing cases, and we are currently litigating…

New Orleans Fraternity Hazing Injury Lawyer — When the Tradition Is a Crime and the Cover-Up Is the Proof If you are reading this at 2 a.m. with a headache that will not stop, or a parent sitting across from a child who came home from a fraternity event changed — quieter, angrier, forgetting words they used to know — you are in the right place.
