22-year-old Blanket Jackson files lawsuit against grandmother Katherine to prevent estate funds being used for legal battle against Sony.
22-year-old Michael Jackson's son, Blanket, is involved in a legal dispute with his 93-year-old grandmother, Katherine Jackson, over the use of funds from the late King of Pop's estate. Blanket has filed a lawsuit against Katherine to prevent her from using estate funds to fight an ongoing legal battle against the executors of his father's estate. The lawsuit comes after Blanket and Katherine previously opposed a business transaction between Michael Jackson's estate and Sony worth $600 million, related to selling half of the King of Pop's music catalog. The court dismissed their plea, and while Katherine wants to appeal, Blanket is against the idea as it would deplete the estate's funds.
