=== Demise of the "Old CAN" === Scott sold his $1,875,000 [[United States dollar|USD]] judgment against CAN for $25,000 USD to Gerry Beany, a Scientologist represented by Moxon, whereby Beany had the largest claim against CAN in the bankruptcy proceeding. In satisfaction of that debt, CAN agreed to give Beany all of CAN's files and records. Beany, in turn, donated the records to the [[Foundation for Religious Freedom]].<ref>{{Cite book|title = The Church of Scientology: A History of a New Religion|url = https://archive.org/details/churchofscientol0000urba|url-access = registration|publisher = Princeton University Press|date = 2011|isbn = 978-0-691-14608-9|language = en|first = Hugh B.|last = Urban|page = [https://archive.org/details/churchofscientol0000urba/page/n165 150]}}</ref> That bankruptcy was the demise of the "Old CAN", marking the end of the [[cult wars]]βat least in North America.{{r|gallagher-melton|p=139}} Controversies surrounding [[new religious movements]] continued, but the debate thereafter largely moved to other arenas than the courts.{{r|gallagher-melton|p=139}}
