text: As I previously stated in the interest of full disclosure, I have now and have never had a relationship of any kind with either party in the suit, nor with the USCCB, other than being a baptized Catholic.
  
  I also have no relationship with the plaintiff's attorney, who is mentioned in the article "Hammond is represented by Bruce C. Howard and Richard S. Wilson of the Chicago law firm Siprut PC."
  
  Now you.
