Judge Says Katherine Jackson Can Challenge Administrators Of Son’s Estate
Posted on Sat Sep 19, 2009 12:12 PM PDT
Judge Mitchell Beckloff has ruled that Katherine Jackson will be allowed to challenge the special administrators of her son's estate without being disinherited.
Attorneys for Jackson had asked the judge to decide whether she could go up against attorney John Branca and music executive John McClain without invoking a clause that would cause her to lose her 40 percent share of her son's millions. Attorneys for Branca and McClain did not challenge Jackson’s petition for a ruling, and if her attorneys decide to formally challenge the authority of the estate administrators, Beckloff will schedule a hearing for the case.
While Jackson hasn't raised too much of a stink about the control over her son's finances, it will be interesting to see what route she decides to take with the administrators. She could argue that Branca and McClain are unfit to handle the late King of Pop's $500 million estate, or that he was under undue influence.
Think this was a good decision? I mean, Katherine is looking out for her grandchildren too, and she seems like the least fame hungry of the Jackson clan...
