As far as member of the board being liable for actions of the yeshiva, it is doubtful the courts will find him liable because he had no control over the yeshiva’s employees. As far as Agudah is concerned, they have staff attorneys who could fight these lawsuits. Besides the camps maybe a separate corporation from the national organization. Also the burden of proof is on the plaintiff, many of these cases are taken on contingency.
and are very expensive so if there is no chance of making money the lawyer wouldn’t take the case.
