Israel National News – Negotiations to reach a settlement in a lawsuit over the burial of a non-Jewish woman in a Jewish cemetery in Colchester, Connecticut fell short of an agreement on Tuesday, a local newspaper reported.
Maria Balaban, represented by Norwich attorney Martin Rutchik, is suing Congregation Ahavath Achim over the 2010 burial of Juliet Steer, a non-Jewish black woman who is buried in the interfaith section of the Jewish cemetery.
