    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    A high-ranking member of the Roman Catholic Church in Quebec is temporarily withdrawing from his duties after sexual assault allegations surfaced.

    The Catholic Church of Quebec announced Friday in a news release that Cardinal Gérald Cyprien Lacroix continues to deny the allegations and he considers them unfounded, but he will withdraw from his duties until the situation is clarified.

    The allegations came up as part of an ongoing class-action lawsuit against the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Quebec.

    The alleged incidents involving Lacroix took place between 1987 and 1988 in Quebec City when the plaintiff was 17.

    From 1982 to 1987, Lacroix served as the secretary-general of the Pie-X secular institute in Quebec City.

    “The diocesan authorities will continue to move forward in the class-action lawsuit process, with respect for the truth and with the aim of offering reparation to survivors of sexual abuse,” the news release says.
