Katherine Jackson Needs More Power

Posted Oct 22nd 2009 6:32PM by TMZ Staff

Katherine Jackson's need for more power is not about her ability to control the estate -- she needs money for the electric bill.

Lawyers in the probate case just told the judge Katherine's allowance needs to be increased to pay the utility bills.

And, the lawyers say, Katherine made more money this year -- therefore, she needs to pay more taxes and needs more in the way of an allowance.

Katherine is currently pulling in $26,804 a month.

Story developing ...

5.

Get what you need Mrs. Jackson, by any means necessary! Your son worked hard for that money, and you and his kids deserve to have it.

You go, Mrs. Jackson! Don’t settle for less!

8. - turn off unused lights
- kick your grown son's and their children out of MJ's house
- your tax liability is not the estate's responsibility
you are still married to joe so he better pay his share


Disgusted

11. Let's face it. She is probably already in the hold as I suspect the invoices from Levits & McMillan exceeded 100K which would have almost consumed her allowance thus far. I think getting rid of a few of the free loaders at Havenhurst would probably also help with the utility bills. It's time for the executors to start charging the freeloaders rent. They add to the wear and tear on the property which is owned and maintained by the estate. I'm sure the judge will look favorably on KJ getting a larger allowance.
