In re Sindesmos Hellinikes-Kinotitos of Chicago

18bk34548
On a motion for relief from the order approving the sale of the debtor’s real property, including a church, filed by the parishioners of the church, held:  The court concludes that the movants have failed to establish the requirements to vacate the sale order under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 60.  While the movants have limited standing to challenge the debtor’s lack of authority, such challenge rests on ecclesiastical and not secular rules.  Such a challenge must be brought in the appropriate, church forum.  As the movants have suffered no harm cognizable under secular law and have failed to show that the entry of the sale order was in error in any other way, for the reasons set forth in the Memorandum Decision, the motion must be denied.
