Suits settled against ex-MLBer Curtis

Two of four young women who alleged former Major League Baseball player Chad Curtis inappropriately touched them have settled a U.S. federal civil lawsuit against him. Terms weren’t revealed. Damages are expected to be determined Oct. 12. Portions of the case involving the other two young women are pending. Earlier this year, all four women settled with Michigan’s Lakewood Public Schools and its board of education for $575,000. The women allege Curtis inappropriately touched them when they attended Lakewood High. He was a volunteer coach in the weight room. Curtis was convicted of criminal sexual conduct in 2013 and is in prison.
