Joe Jackson Just Wants to Be Treated With Dignity
Joe Jackson, father of the late Michael Jackson, is feeling disrespected.
His lawyer, Brian Oxman, says his client has not been treated with "dignity and worth" so far by the judge in the Michael Jackson probate case.
Oxman filed papers with a California appeals court, claiming the probate judge was wrong in shutting down Joe's attempt to 86 MJ's executors.
Close friends John Branca and John McClain have been administering MJ's estate at the late icon's request, and as specified in his last, valid will.
Joe's attempts to score cash have been repeatedly struck down by them, as have his attempts to have them removed by the judge in the case.
Joe Jackson: One of the all-time characters.
The trial judge ruled Joe Jackson had no legal standing to object to the duo, since Joe himself was intentionally excluded by MJ as a beneficiary. Rough.
Oxman claims Joe was dependent on his son and should have a right to object to the appointment of men making the financial decisions for the Estate.
Although Joe is alleging various misdeeds by the executors - fraud, embezzlement, whatever he can make up next - he's doing more harm than good.
A lawyer for Michael Jackson's kids - Paris, Prince and Blanket - claims Joe is actually harming them with the "procedural wrangling." Margaret Lodise says Joe only cares about his stake and, therefore, he's "the ultimate dog in the manger."
Ouch. The truth hurts, doesn't it?

Joe Jackson is more right and on the money than he has ever been before.He's right .Think about it,if you worked at a store and you killed one of the customers,shouldn't you and your employer be found negligent and sued,of course, without a doubt.Conrad Murray was to be payed $140,000 a month by AEG to provide his services to Michael Jackson "the customer" and his services ended up killing Michael Jackson...There is only one problem, AEG donates millions of dollars to the City of Los Angeles and unfortunately black stars dont get much justice in L.A. like Tupac,Notorious B.I.G and now Michael Jackson.AEG and the City of Los Angeles are in bed together and the trial should be moved elsewhere.

Three cheers for the children's lawyer speaking up as she has. She is spot on with her comment about Joe. He is only making trouble because he was shut out of the will. He should have treated his son better when Michael was younger. HOW DARE HE now object to the will. I hope he is not fighting this with the intention of taking from his grandchildren.
