Massachusetts Judge: Property must be put to a religious use for exemption to continue

Wicked Local: “Superior Court judge has denied the archbishop of Boston’s request to end a lengthy legal battle between the church and the town over taxes owed on St. Frances X. Cabrini, a parish closed in 2004. For the property to remain tax-exempt, the archbishop must provide proof that the archdiocese plans to put the property to a religious use, Judge Paul Troy said in a ruling Tuesday.”
