Penn State is seeking to immediately appeal a recent decision barring it from receiving insurance coverage for damages stemming from much of the sexual abuse by convicted serial child molester Jerry Sandusky.

Penn State on June 3 filed a motion in the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas requesting that the court allow it to pursue an interlocutory appeal in Pennsylvania Manufacturers’ Association Insurance v. Pennsylvania State University. The motion, which seeks a stay in the civil matter pending the appeal, was made public Monday morning.
