And so, to court. Michael Jackson's family came out all guns blazing yesterday, as opening shots were fired in two snowballing legal disputes prompted by his death: over the singer's billion-dollar estate, and his three children.
Jackson's mother, Katherine, was made temporary guardian of the children when she filed papers at Los Angeles Superior Court seeking full control over her late son's affairs. Her submission claimed he died without a valid will, and that his children had "no relationship with their biological mother".
The application set the stage for showdowns on 6 July and 3 August, when a judge will consider her application to administer the estate, and weigh up the pros and cons of candidates who volunteer to bring up Michael Jr, 12, Paris, 11, and Prince Michael II, the seven-year-old known as "Blanket."
