KATHERINE JACKSON, ET AL. v. AEG LIVE LLC, ET AL., Civil Case No. BC445597 (Wrongful Death Case), Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles, Central District (Case filed September 15, 2010).
Deceased superstar entertainer Michael Jackson's mother, Katherine Jackson, individually as well as in her legal capacity of guardian ad litem her son's three children --- Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., Paris-Michael Katherine Jackson, and Prince Michael Jackson II --- is suing giant entertainment company AEG LIVE LLC and others.
The lawsuit alleges, among other things, that the company and its agents breached its contract with Michael Jackson to provide proper physical care and treatment, as well as safety, for him ("MJ") [Complaint, paras. 3, 4, 5].
The lawsuit claims that AEG was negligent in their hiring of Dr. Conrad Murray as "MJ's" personal physician [Complaint, paras. 7, 26, 27, 28, et al.].
In the suit, Katherine claims AEG's contract with Michael "created a legal duty for AEG to act reasonably toward the physical well-being of Michael Jackson."
In the document, Katherine also blames AEG for hiring Dr. Murray without a proper background check -- claiming, "AEG did not provide a doctor who was truly looking out for Jackson's well-being and did not provide equipment." [Complaint, paras. 84, et al.].
The suit also alleges AEG caused emotional distress to Michael's son Prince because he witnessed Michael suffering and dying, and "he was put in a position as bystander to these tragic events." [Complaint, paras. 91, 92, 93].
Kenny Ortega, who produced the planned London concerts for Michael, is also named as a defendant [Complaint, para. 14].
