TL;DR Summary

Wade Robson and James Safechuck, who accused Michael Jackson of sexually abusing them as children, can revive their dismissed lawsuits against Jackson's estate, according to a court opinion. The California appeals court ruled that a corporation owned by the perpetrator of child abuse cannot be excused from its duty to protect the victims. Robson and Safechuck allege that Jackson sexually abused them when they were minors, and their cases will now go back to trial. The estate's attorney expressed disappointment with the decision, while the plaintiffs' lawyer welcomed the opportunity for a trial on the merits.
