LOS ANGELES – The legal team for Michael Jackson's mother on Tuesday asked a judge for the power to press the administrators of her son's estate for more information ahead of a key hearing next week, but the judge rebuffed the effort.

Lawyers for Katherine Jackson on Tuesday requested the authority to interview attorney John Branca and former music executive John McClain this Friday, as well as demand they produce business contracts and other documents related to the late pop star.

Her lawyers argued in a court filing that the information was "potentially crucial" to a hearing set for Monday that could determine the permanent representatives of Jackson's estate, which is estimated to be worth more than $500 million.

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Mitchell Beckloff put off dealing with their request until Monday, effectively quashing it.

Beckloff may determine at Monday's hearing whether special administrators Branca and McClain will transition from temporary to permanent representatives of the estate, and whether an allowance will be granted to Katherine and Jackson's three children.

Jackson's 2002 will puts his assets in a trust that benefits Katherine, his three children and unnamed children's charities.

Tuesday's filing was meant to expedite the process of obtaining "important personal, business and legal information and documents relating to Michael Jackson" including his deal with concert promoter AEG Live, according to a written statement from L. Londell McMillan, who is part of Katherine Jackson's legal team.

They're also seeking "life insurance policies, settlements and disputes as well as agreements between the temporary special administrators and Michael Jackson (and others)."

McMillan said they'd requested some of the documents before and had hoped to see them before the Aug. 3 hearing.

Katherine Jackson's lawyers alleged in filings that Branca and McClain were "intent on keeping her in the dark as much and for as long as possible."

Branca and McClain's legal team responded that the singer's mother had made "voluminous, burdensome and invasive discovery demands" that were impossible to meet in a short time frame.

It added that it could not produce the contract detailing Jackson's comeback tour with promoter AEG Live because of confidentiality provisions, but was willing to share the contract if Katherine Jackson agreed to the provisions. The parties were unable to agree on the terms.

The administrators' legal team also argued that it was unclear why Katherine Jackson was demanding so much information. Her subpoena and deposition notices had "all the earmarks of a protracted and expensive legal battle which does not appear to be justified," the administrators' lawyers said in a filing.

I find it interesting that Tito did not give a straight answer about Omer. He said to ask his father.

I would never, ever want that kind of life. I've said it twice already...a lot of times fame and fortune ain't all it's cracked up to be and often when people go from rags to riches they just trade one set of problems for another.

ALL THAT GLITTERS AIN'T ALWAYS GOLD PEOPLE!

I am glad the net is closing in on Dr Murray


It is considered reckless in the medical community for a doctor to administer an IV drip of Propofol without the patient being monitored by an EKG, which sounds an alarm when the patient's pulse drops too low. No EKG was found in the house.

Exactly!

Murray going down


but uh, what the fuck them two heffas lift outta his home? boxes and shit? what? this wreaks of shadiness and foul play of the deepest stench from the bowels of murderous money grubbing doctors. Im jus sayin'

Cops Seize Cell Phones, Hard Drive from Jackson's Doctor
July 28



Detectives and DEA agents investigating Michael Jackson's death walked away from Dr. Conrad Murray's house in Las Vegas on Tuesday with cell phones and a computer hard drive, the physician's lawyer says.

"The search warrant authorized investigators to look for medical records relating to Michael Jackson and all of his reported aliases," says attorney Edward Chernoff, whose client is the apparent target of a manslaughter investigation.

Murray, who was with Jackson when the entertainer was stricken at his Los Angeles home and later pronounced dead, was in his house in a gated community outside Las Vegas when authorities arrived, and he helped them with the search, Chernoff says in a statement posted on his law firm's Web site.

Authorities also searched Murray's clinic near the Las Vegas Strip.

The searches came less than a week after Los Angeles and federal investigators raided Murray's clinic in Houston. That search warrant authorized the investigators to seek evidence of manslaughter, Chernoff said.

Let's keep in mind people that a RAID of someone's home doesn't implicate them of a crime.....

Let's wait to hear the facts before we jump to conclusions.

So did you submit?

@ the lady with her dog in her hoodie.

WTH! I just saw Anderson Cooper's demonstration on Propofol. The guy they used as an example stopped breathing in 10 SECONDS! How could Murray fall asleep like the rumors are saying?

So is Conrad dead yet?

The claims I'm hearing I'm actually quite surprised Michael survived at all as long as he was given the drug allegedly...

Sheriff probing Jackson coroner's employees

LOS ANGELES -- Los Angeles County sheriff's investigators have begun an inquiry into whether coroner's employees illegally leaked or sold private information related to the investigation of Michael Jackson's death.

Investigators spoke to the coroner's office Friday and will handle the inquiry with the district attorney's office, according to sheriff's spokesman Steve Whitmore. The department was asked to conduct the probe by county supervisors, he said.

"It's an inquiry, not an investigation, and it is very preliminary," Whitmore said. "We've just made a couple of calls. We want to find out if we need to proceed, if this requires an investigation."

On Wednesday the coroner's office said Jackson's death certificate was improperly viewed by at least a half-dozen employees who had no role in investigating the cause of his death.

Improper views of the certificate, which is stored in a state-supervised computer system, is a violation of internal rules, not any laws, Harvey said.

Harvey has said the employees were warned and that no further investigation was needed.

Within two weeks of the entertainer's June 25 death, the certificate had been viewed more than 300 times, according to Harvey. The electronic death registration system can be accessed by anyone with a state-issued password, including employees at coroner's offices, funeral homes, hospitals and county and state registrar's offices.
