Yeshiva Torah Temimah is a Haredi yeshiva with branches in Brooklyn, New York and Lakewood, New Jersey that was founded by Rabbi Lipa Margolis.
A May 2006 article in New York magazine claimed that Rabbi Yehuda Kolko, a teacher at the school for 30 years, had been a pedophile. A $20 million civil case was filed against the yeshiva and Rabbi Kolko, alleging that the yeshiva had concealed the Rabbi's actions and had intimidated victims from reporting the incidents.
