Check-in with Interim CEO Dr Karen Johnson


It is not widely known yet, but it may be circulating in the news in the near future that the lawsuit filed by the Castillo Family regarding the events of May 7th will be dismissed by District Court Judge Jeffery K. Holmes.


The dismissal outlines that STEM's insurance company will pay the amount of $387,000 to the registry of the Douglas County District Court, which will then be passed on to the Castillo's attorneys for the benefit of Mr. and Mrs. Castillo.


Before the lawsuit was filed, STEM had always had the offer to provide the maximum amount available of monetary damages to the Castillo families, and we support the judge's decision to uphold our offer with this dismissal.
