Thanks Robert for your help...

Interesting - are you on 10.9.4 or 10.9.5? or?

for me this also does NOT work.... so maybe that means something else (?) is going on with my system?

ALSO - can you please test mine to see if this DOES work for you?

tell application "Finder"
activate
set sort column of list view options of Finder window 1 to modification date column
set sort direction of column id modification date column of list view options of Finder window 1 to reversed
end tell

And - I repaired permissions - but that did not help either ....

Any ideas what could be keeping this from happening?

This works for me;

tell application "Finder"
tell list view options of window 1
set sort column to name column
tell column name column
if sort direction is normal then
set sort direction to reversed
else
set sort direction to normal
end if #
end tell # column name column
end tell # window 1
end tell # Finder
