Fresno County Superior Court Judge Rosemary T. McGuire denied an injunction on March 18, clearing way for the sale, which was set to be finalized on Wednesday.
Theater owner Laurence Abbate has not commented publicly on the sale. His attorney, Dave Camenson, was not immediately available for comment on Tuesday.
The 81-year-old namesake of the Tower District has been the site of weekly protests every Sunday since the potential sale became public. Along with Tower Theatre, the church is looking to buy surrounding properties in the same parcel including Sequoia.
