I suspect it is because all your code is in a Finder tell block, but you are dealing with a scripting addition (i.e. "info for") and there have been terminology conflicts between these two in the past.

Jon's Commands has a "fileBusy" function in it. As another data point you could try that and see if it agrees with the code you are currently using.
