A Los Angeles appeals court has denied an attempt by Michael Jackson's mother to block a $600-million transaction between the singer's estate and Sony.
A Los Angeles appeals court has denied an attempt by Michael Jackson's mother to prevent the singer's estate from selling a portion of his songs to Sony Music Group for about $600 million. The appeals court on Wednesday upheld a prior ruling by a probate court that Katherine Jackson's objections to the transaction do not hold water.
According to court documents, Katherine Jackson had previously complained that selling assets from Michael Jackson's catalog would violate her son's wishes, but acknowledged that executors had the power to do so. The appeals court also noted that Katherine Jackson was the only family member and beneficiary of the trust to formally object to the sale. An attorney for Katherine Jackson did not immediately respond Thursday to The Times' request for comment.
