According to reports, Katy Perry looks for $ 5 million in damages after obtaining a great victory in the legal battle against businessman Carl Westcott.
According to the latest report of People’s magazineOrlando Bloom’s ex -girlfriend appeared in the Court on August 26 to testify in the current legal dispute surrounding her $ 15 million mansion in Montecito, California.
The media reported that Katy Perry joined the Los Angeles judicial procedures through Zoom, answering questions about the purchase of 2020 of the California farm of the 1930s.
For those who do not know, Perry and former Orlando Bloom bought the property of businessman Carl Westcott, who is also the founder of 1-800 flowers.
Later, Westcott was diagnosed with Huntington’s disease in 2015, so he tried to terminate the contract, claiming that he “lacked capacity” to sign the transaction.
He also filed a lawsuit against Perry’s commercial manager Bernie Gudvi, in August 2020.
After a legal battle of years, Perry prevailed in a previous trial on the issue of responsibility, and in May 2024, he officially won possession of the property of Santa Barbara County through its LLC, Ddoveb, the Wall Street Journal reported.
The judge ruled that Westcott presented “no persuasive evidence that it lacked the capacity to enter into a real estate contract,” noting that it seemed “coherent, committed, lucid and rational” by signing.
Since then, the case has been fork, and Perry now looks for more than $ 5 million in damages, including $ 3 million to cover the loss of rental income.
