TMZ • • entertainment
Key Points:
- Paris Jackson is opposing John Branca, executor of Michael Jackson's estate, in court over a request to seal documents related to fee payments and estate management.
- Branca argues that making the documents public could harm future business deals and be exploited by adversaries, while Paris claims the estate remains open due to mismanagement and lack of transparency.
- Paris accuses Branca of using inflammatory rhetoric and suggests his sealing motion is aimed at protecting his reputation rather than the estate's interests.
- She highlights that Branca and the late John McClain have been paid over $120 million for managing the estate, contrasting this with the comparatively modest financial benefits received by her and her brothers.
- The executor's team defends their management, noting the estate continues to generate significant income, including from a biopic that grossed over $1 billion.
