Judge Forces Michael Jackson’s Ex-Business Partners to Stay Out of His Estate

Michael jackson2A recent ruling has left Michael Jackson’s former business partners without a multi-million dollar slice of Jackson’s estate. Three of the four plaintiffs in the case claim that, in 2006, they met Jackson in a hotel room, where he promised them shares of his company for their loyalty. Because it was only an oral agreement and not a written contract, the plaintiffs ran into huge problems, leaving the judge to ultimately decide that they lacked credibility.
