A lawsuit filed Monday claims that a funeral home placed the wrong body in the casket of New Jersey woman Kyung Ja Kim for her funeral, then stopped mid-burial.
The family of Kyung Ja Kim is suing after a funeral home put another woman's body in her casket for her funeral of the decedent’s grandchildren and others who had made last-minute travel arrangements to be present for the Saturday funeral service but had scheduled for an immediate return," the complaint says.
Maggiano told Fox News that Kyung Ja Kim's wish was for there to be a mass for her at the Promise Church upon her passing. "That did not happen. The funeral mass was celebrated over the body of another woman," Maggiano said.including breach of contract and a denial of a common law right of peaceful interment. The family is suing for $50 million, but Maggiano told Fox News that if they succeed the money will be split between his mother’s church in Leonia, N.J. and another church of hers in New York.
