SHORT TAKES : Country Singer to Quit Mansion
<i> From Times Wire Services </i>
FRANKLIN, Tenn. —
Country music singer Dottie West, who lost her mansion to foreclosure, says she will be off the premises by Friday.
First American National Bank bought the mansion for $800,000 at a foreclosure sale earlier this year. An eviction order was filed in Williamson County General Sessions Court on Aug. 1 when West did not leave the premises.
A hearing on the matter was delayed when she filed for bankruptcy protection.
West has been beset by financial problems that include an outstanding debt of $110,000 claimed by her former financial manager.
She is known for hit records such as “Every Time Two Fools Collide,” a duet with Kenny Rogers.
