Did Michael Jackson Leave A Will That Excluded Joe Jackson?
There's been so much speculation on whether Michael Jackson had a will or not.Well,it turns out that he did draw one up.And the father that has been out there acting so undignified may have been left out of it!
I have even more sympathy for Michael Jackson's travails once I saw how uncaring his father seems to be.I believe Joe Jackson cared way more about Michael Jackson as the world's biggest superstar than he did as his son.And that's probably why Michael didn't leave his father anything.
Here's more on that from Yahoo!News:
"The question of whether Michael Jackson had a valid will at the time of his death just got a little more complicated.
Yesterday, parents Joe and Katherine Jackson sought control of Michael's estate, claiming in court documents that the King of Pop died without a will. Hours later, one drafted in 2002 surfaced.
According to the Wall Street Journal, the document—which will no doubt be the centerpiece of a lengthy and ferocious legal battle in months to come—divides the superstar's estate among his mother, his three children (Prince Michael, Paris and Prince Michael II) and at least one charity.
It's unclear what custody arrangements, if any, Jackson made for his three children. But a court ruling yesterday gave temporary guardianship to Katherine.
At least one aspect of the will does appear to be clear: Joe Jackson wasn't named as an heir.
The will, drafted by Jackson's longtime attorney John Branca, may be filed in probate court as early as Thursday.
So far, the family is mum on the document.
"No will has been presented to family or us," Joe and Katherine's lawyer, L. Londell McMillan, told the Journal. "We will review any will when we see it."
