Michael Jackson’s Estate Fights Late Pop Star’s Mom Katherine Over Secret Deal, Claim Paris & Prince Have No Issues With Proposal
The executors of Michael Jackson’s estate went back to court to fight the late pop star’s mom Katherine over her attempt to shut down a potentially lucrative business deal, RadarOnline.com has learned.
According to court documents obtained by RadarOnline.com, the estate, run by John Branca and John McClain, is asking a court to brush off Katherine’s objections to the proposed transaction.
As we first reported, in November, the estate asked the court to approve a deal they had secured. Branca and McClain explained they “have an opportunity which they believe is to the substantial advantage of the Estate and in the best interest of the beneficiaries.”
Branca and McClain have been in charge of Michael’s estate since his death on June 25, 2009. The beneficiaries of the estate are Michael’s three children, Prince, Paris, and Blanket. However, Michael’s will made sure to provide for his mother Katherine for the rest of her life.
The estate did not provide details of the deal in question. A couple of months later, Katherine filed an objection to the deal. Her filing was sealed by the court. She has yet to publicly reveal her reasoning.
Now, in a new filing, the estate has asked the court to dismiss Katherine’s plea and allow them to move forward with the deal.
