Overview
- A Los Angeles County judge signed a proposed order awarding roughly $1.84 million to Perry, which is expected to stand unless an objection is filed within 10 days.
- Perry had sought nearly $5 million, and the court’s calculation credits about $2.8 million in rental value minus offsets for retained capital and interest, plus approved repair expenses.
- Reporting indicates Perry’s business manager previously paid Westcott $9 million and kept about $6 million in escrow, from which the award would be deducted.
- The dispute stems from Westcott’s 2020 attempt to rescind the $15 million sale by claiming incapacity from medication and a Huntington’s disease diagnosis.
- A prior ruling found Westcott was coherent at the time of the deal and upheld the sale, with Perry securing title in 2024 and the damages phase now nearing conclusion.
