Paris Jackson Wins Court Victory, Forces $625,000 Repaid to Michael Jackson Estate
Paris Jackson won a major victory in her ongoing dispute with the Michael Jackson estate, with a judge ordering executors John Branca and John McClain to repay $625,000 to the estate for outside counsel payments, and Paris being entitled to attorneys’ fees and costs. The decision increases transparency around how estate funds are spent; Branca and McClain say the ruling reflects ordinary legal-fee processes, while Paris has long criticized their use of funds and has clashed with them over her father’s legacy, including the film project.
