Mark Geragos -- A Rich Man, Maybe

Posted Mar 3rd 2008 5:16PM by TMZ Staff

Attorney Mark Geragos won a personal judgment in the XtraJet case that could qualify him to buy Neverland if it goes up for auction.

According to the order, the people responsible for illegally taping Geragos' conversations with Michael Jackson the day Jacko surrendered to face molestation charges must pay him $2 million in compensatory damages and $16 million in punitive damages. Those punitive damages are divided equally between Jeffrey Borer, the former owner of the jet company and the now bankrupt company itself.

But Geragos may want to hold on to his wallet, the lawyers for Borer says he will appeal.

6. Mark Geragos could use the money, because he never wins any of his cases. I can't imagine who would hire him.

7. Mark Garagos is also representing others who have been wiretapped re: Anthony Pellicano investigator case sitting in jail where he belongs for wiretapping innocent people. They used a system probably still in use today called Telesleuth.
Heads yeah are starting to roll. Anthony Pellicano should talk and expose those hollywood/ people for a deal to get out of prison.

TMZ should print more on this subject and keep the HEAT ON!

9. I agree with Laura. This POS hardly ever wins any cases and yet he rapes his clients for big bucks. He's the white man's Al Sharpton/Jesse Jackson. MEDIA WHORE!!

14. As much money that he steals from his clients like (Scott Petersen), He should be able to fix his teeth.He's probably to busy ripping people off like all the other lawyers in this world. Their is a special place in HELL for all these lawyers. Like Johnny Cocharan, Yeah remember him! Oj's lawyer he new OJ did it, but the money was good. Can't take it with you Johnny!
