Brief excerpt:

The Delta Delta Delta sorority has left the University of Utah, but a debate over what legacy its house will leave went to court this week.
The national Delta Delta Delta sorority filed suit in 3rd District Court on Thursday claiming its Theta Phi chapter, which had been on the U.'s campus since 1932 and has owned a house on Greek Row since 1939, has refused to hand over the house title.
Utah alums say they have good reason: They want proceeds from the sale of the house . . . to benefit the local community, rather than going into the national sorority's general operating fund. . . .
YOICKS.

In the words of Cartman, now that's what I call a sticky situation.

But if there's nothing in the house corp papers or the deed about the house ownership automatically reverting to the national in a chapter closure, I can't see where their HQ has a leg to stand on.
