Nun battling Katy Perry says singer ‘has blood on her hands’

[BUtterfield 8 38,009]

Sister Rita Callanan has endured a year from hell after a court battle with Katy Perry over her order’s Los Angeles convent — a fight that, she says, has left her nearly paralyzed, penniless and without a home.

Callanan, the only surviving sister of the Order of the Most Holy and Immaculate Heart of the Blessed Virgin Mary, also claims that the singer has “blood on her hands.”

On March 9, 2018, Sister Callanan’s best friend, Sister Catherine Rose Holzman, 89, collapsed and died in a Los Angeles court as they prepared to face the star’s legal team yet again. Holtzman’s last words: “Katy Perry. Please stop.”

Perry had bought the convent in 2015, from the Los Angeles archdiocese, for $14.5 million in cash.

But the nuns claimed that only they had the right to sell the eight-acre property having pooled their money together to purchase it in 1972. According to insiders, they had raised the cash by letting production companies film at the convent.

The sisters occupied it until 2011, when, they say, the archdiocese forced them to move. The nuns then sold the 30,000-square-foot Spanish-Gothic home to businesswoman Dana Hollister in 2015. The archdiocese, claiming the nuns had no right to do so, approved a sale to Perry.

In 2016, a judge declared the nuns’ sale invalid, and a jury awarded Perry and the archdiocese damages totaling more than $15 million.

Callanan claims that employees of the archdiocese then got access to Holzman’s apartment at St. John of God Retirement Home in LA.

She believes they were after correspondence between the Sisters and the Vatican about the convent.

Callanan claimed the archdiocese demanded her laptop as well. “I had to get a friend to hide it,” she said.

Her personal bank account has been controlled by the archdiocese since 2011, according to a Callanan source, adding that money has not been doled out on time.

After all the drama, the convent is now back on the market for $25 million. Callanan’s legal team told The Post that Perry no longer wants the property. (Perry’s representative did not return requests for comment. The LA archdiocese said: “While the formal legal option on the property has expired, the Archdiocese and Ms. Perry continue to be in communication concerning her continued interest in the property.”)

Callanan admits that perhaps the sisters acted without authority. “We asked Dana to buy our property as we didn’t want it to go to Katy Perry. Yes, we put the wheels in motion to sell our property.

Was it legal? Probably not entirely. But it wasn’t legal for Katy Perry to buy [it] either.”

SO who has the rights to the land? Who can sell it? I'm kinda confused. If the nuns' sale was invalid and the archdiocese's sale to Perry was invalid. Who can sell it?

Four years, and just like that
This case still takes me back
Thought it was done
But I guess it's never really over

It was a petty move by the nuns. That's not Katy's fault.

I feel so guilty laughing at this

Hum seems to me that the nuns should be after the archdiocese , not Katy Perry. She bought the convent through the archdiocese. 

 

This whole case sounds too much for me.

The Nuns had a bad  real estate agent and didn't get their property claim legally on the books apparently. Idk. Property title is usually really simple. Leave it to the Church to have problems with such a simple thing like property title.
