The judge found Westcott "presented no persuasive evidence that he lacked capacity to enter into a real estate contract" and Perry was awarded the home.

In his motion, Westcott explained there were issues during the process of transferring the title in April. His lawyer said: "Namely, during escrow for the transfer of the title, the buyer and realtors showed up for a pre-agreed inspection of the house. "Mr. Westcott’s house manager showed up to unlock the home. "Upon opening the door, it was discovered that during the last 24 to 48 hours, a significant water leak in the house (feet of waters not inches) had occurred, which greatly expanded the scope of alleged repairs." <figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=3MltG0_0wCmu5Un00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=3MltG0_0wCmu5Un00" width="1200" height="628" ><figcaption>Perry's house woes come as her pop career stalls.
