Hopefully, the church will have competent legal counsel, and will pay no attention to your advice. Once the priest is put on the stand, he will be in far more jeopardy than he is now.

Well, in a criminal case, certainly. But in a civil case in which he is a named party, you can bet your bottom buck they WILL call him as the first witness on cross, so he'll be on the stand whether he likes it or not. His lawyer's job will be to try to repair the damage.

Have you ever tried a civil case?
