The Diocese of Stockton has now agreed to pay the victim and his legal representation $3.75 million.
Fr Kelly joined the Stockton diocese in 1973 after completing his seminary studies in Thurles, Co. Tipperary.

He has denied the allegations against him repeatedly and his defence team stated he had passed a lie detector test.
