Huh?

Not that it matters, but I can't tell if HOP is "high", being artistic/poetic, English is their 2nd language or all of them.

No judging, I just can't make sense of it.

HOP, is all over the place

This is good news for the Prince estate. One of the things Comerica said in the court docs is that they were waiting to see how this IRS case with the Jackson estate turned out.

Michael Jackson Estate May Avoid Penalties in IRS Dispute

© BLOOMBERG NEWS/Bloomberg Michael Jackson Estate May Avoid Penalties in IRS Dispute

The estate of Michael Jackson looks to have escaped a possibly hefty penalty for allegedly undervaluing the late singer’s assets.

A U.S. Tax Court judge denied the Internal Revenue Service’s bid to provide additional evidence in a case that was tried in Los Angeles in February. Because the agency didn’t show that it complied with certain procedural requirements, it’s barred from seeking as much as 40 percent of the allegedly understated tax in penalties.

“What happens if a party with the burden of production on an issue fails to introduce sufficient evidence at trial to meet that burden?” Judge Mark Holmes said in his Dec. 20 order. “Well, he loses.”

The executors of Jackson’s estate, lawyer John Branca and former music industry executive John McClain, have been busy monetizing the legacy of the singer, who died in 2009, for the benefit of his children.

“This Is It,” a documentary about Jackson’s preparations for his ill-fated 2009 tour, went on to be the highest-grossing concert movie of all time, with $261.2 million in worldwide sales, according to researcher BoxOfficeMojo.com. Last year, the estate sold Jackson’s half of the Sony/ATVmusic publishing business to Sony for $750 million.

In 2013, the IRS went after the estate with a “notice of deficiency,” claiming it had undervalued assets including real estate, a Bentley automobile and the late singer’s “image and likeness.”

© Frazer Harrison/Getty Images Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch in 2003.The court ruling didn’t quantify how much the assets were allegedly undervalued, but Bloomberg Businessweek reported in February that the IRS claimed Jackson’s name and image should have been valued at $434 million. The estate claimed that it was worth a mere $2,105, implying that his image had been rendered all but worthless by stories about skin bleaching, his obsession with plastic surgery, prescription drug abuse, and allegations that he molested young boys who visited Neverland Ranch.

“The court’s order denying the IRS’s request to reopen the trial record was well reasoned and could prevent the government from seeking penalty assessments on their claim against the Estate of Michael Jackson," said Howard Weitzman, a lawyer for the estate.

A representative for the IRS said the agency can’t comment on ongoing lawsuits.

The case is Estate of Michael J. Jackson v. IRS, 17152-13, U.S. Tax Court (Washington).

MJ has a Trust and his family still cut up and the IRS came after the estate for undervaluing the worth of Mike image.

The Trust saved the estate millions in taxes but the IRS is trying to get money any way they can.

Comerica said the court papers they wanted to wait and see how this case turned out before closing the promote on Prince's estate to avoid taxes, fees and penalites. Something the older sibs are clueless on because it does not appear they have attorneys who know anything about estate management.

Sony Music and the estate of Michael Jackson have agreed to a recording deal that will continue the label’s 42-year relationship with the singer and his music, it was announced today by Rob Stringer, Sony Music CEO and John Branca and John McClain, co-executors of Jackson’s estate.

.

Effective January 1, 2018, Sony Music will extend the term of their administration of Michael’s record catalog in a long term recording agreement. Sony will also have the opportunity to partner on additional projects that the Estate may produce during the term of the agreement.

MJ is one of the top richest dead celebrities for 5-years in a row.......

.

Jackson is atop the Forbes list of top-earning dead celebrities for the fifth straight year, with $75 million. Forbes says Jackson’s earnings are boosted by a new greatest hits album, a Las Vegas Cirque du Soleil show and a stake in the EMI music publishing catalog.

Two other singers join Jackson in the top five. Elvis Presley comes in fourth with $35 million and Bob Marley ranks fifth with $23 million.

Information about MJs does pertain to Prince's estate and explained the reason.

I saw that one of Prince's last properties is up for sale. I guess his real estate would be considered part of his estate, yes?

I just wondered if it was the house that Kirk lived in.

Ooh I’ve walked by that house a number of times when going for long walks. Longacres is a really nice neighborhood. I thought Prince owned a couple homes in that cul-de-sac.

You're so lucky to live that close.

I dunno. That sure would be interesting to know. I saw that one room was painted a purple shade and had purple drapes on the window.
