Celebrity Justice
Lawyers to Jacko: Pay Up, Deadbeat!

Michael Jackson is being sued again, this time over claims he owes even more money to more lawyers.

In a lawsuit filed today in Los Angeles County Superior Court, a Delaware-based law firm claims that Jacko never forked over $109,994.48 he owes them for acting as "general counsel" in a case against a concert promoter who accused the singer of backing out of two New Year's Eve concerts in 2000. That case was settled out of court.

According to the lawsuit, the firm has, "made repeated (but polite) demands" to get their money, but Jackson never responded.

Calls to Jackson's reps were not immediately returned.

16. This is stupid.
I hate when people bash Jacko for stuff by saying stuff like:

"This man has repeatedly done things to children that you would post the most vile awful things "
There was no proof of that!

"He got away with it because he is Michael Jackson and he turned his trial into a circus". There was no proof he was guilty. The media turnd it into a circus not Jacko.

"Any time children can indentify a mark around a man genitals as police said some boys did"
The prosecutor announced it, but could not back it up. This was proved to be false.

And the real kicker is:

"all of you defending Michael Jackson are delusional"(!)
This is false. I know EXACTLY what happened in the trial and no way was Jacko going to be convicted. The people that bash Jacko with endless false rumours are the delusional ones - they believe the press and are too stupid to use their own minds to do research.

17. Totally agreed. To all those folks calling people who stand up for Michael Jackson dillusional... try reading court transcripts (still available to the public) instead of getting your news from National Enquirer. Michael Jackson didn't get off because he's rich and famous (please, as if people have public sympathy for him), the jurors voted the way they did because THE BOY AND HIS SIBLINGS AND HIS MOTHER COULDN'T KEEP A STORY STRAIGHT FOR THE LIFE OF THEM. Every day they would change their story. Not to mention, of all the millions of kids Michael is in contact with every year, he chooses to molest the only two whose parents have criminal histories for suing people for false claims. The district attorney promised to get five boys on the stand who would all testify against Jackson - the current accuser kept lying, the 90s accuser didn't even bother to show up but his mother did who defended Michael on the stand, and the other three boys who were supposed to testify against him all turned up to defend him. This case has been BS from day one, and the media pounced on it and kept lying because they could make money and ratings. Why don't you lame critical people stop being sheep who believe everything they are told and try doing some research for yourself. YOU are the ones who are brainwashed and delusional. Try having an informed opinion for once instead of believing anyone who looks or acts wierd is a criminal.

18. #16 and #17: You're most likely the same person.

Your pedophile hero is a child molestor. You don't just hand people $15 or $20 million dollars (two different cases) for no reason at all. Plus, research the Smoking Gun site and read all the transcripts where the kids describe in detail what this freaks genitals look like and what he tried to do to them. The freak's fame and money got him out of this. What about the 2 jurors who said they were wrong and were convinced that he did molest that kid?

You Wacko Jacko fans are the sheep. You'll believe anything that freakazoid says, because you're all BLIND. Wake up. This mentally ill pedophile should be in prison where he belongs. It will happen someday, wait and see. Pedophiles can't stop.

20. Earth to the one claiming that "MJ is a rare human being". You mother ship is calling. Why don't you take MJ with you.

MJ is a child molester, freak, a liar, a thief and there is nothing human about that freak. He's lower than dirt.

22. Well, I remember all of the great songs that Jackson has performed. And I never did believe for a minute that he molested the kids, and I am no big fan of him as a person. This always looked like a false Ac, case to me, and none of the victims are credible. They are after money, pure and simple.
He may just not have the money to pay, but he at least needs to make some arrangement to pay what he can over time.
Lawyers offices are sharks, and I am sure they are charging thousands for work worth hundreds, but that is the way most are.
