An Act To Amend Title 10 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Liability For Sexual Abuse Of A Child By An Adult Employee Of A School, Organization, Or Business. [HB-277]
This Act codifies the principle set forth in Doe v. Bicking, 2020 Del. Super. LEXIS 43, *32, 2020 WL 374677 (Del. Super. Jan. 22, 2020) that recognizes that in cases of childhood sexual abuse by an employee of a school, organization, or business that serves or cares for children, the perpetrator often has authority and power over the child victim, which can be enabled by the perpetrators position in that institution. If a child is abused while the perpetrator is doing the perpetrators job, the employer should be responsible.
