A federal judge has preliminarily approved the $17.75 million settlement Robert K. Mericle, the builder of two juvenile detention facilities who allegedly paid millions in “finder’s fees” to former Luzerne County Judges Michael T. Conahan and Mark A. Ciavarella Jr., agreed to in December in a civil suit brought by a class of juvenile plaintiffs.
The suit stems from the “kids-for-cash” scandal in Luzerne County.
