11/14/11 CAROL SCHULLER MILNER UPSET RE JUDGE's DECISION

[no final decision by Judge Kwan re who will be the buyer of the cathedral (catholic diocese versus chapman univ)...but he apparently turned down some of founder Schuller's copyright claims against the church, which seems strange to me..b/c I think of schuller as the crystal cathedral..& find it paradoxical that he has set himself up as merely a contracted entity of the church for legal purposes, ..on the one hand, yes, he has his family to think about, on the other hand, doesn't he consider the congregation at all at least a little bit to be his extended family ?

This is going to be a slap in the face,” she told reporters after the hearing..."
