Dr. Tohme Tohme Wants Money Money from MJ

Posted Nov 13th 2009 1:39PM by TMZ Staff

MIchael Jackson, Dr. Tohme TohmeMichael Jackson's former manager just filed a huge creditor's claim against the estate ... and it's mostly over the sale of Neverland Ranch in 2008.

In the documents, filed yesterday in L.A. County Superior Court, Dr. Tohme says he was promised a certain fee from Michael if he could locate a company to save Neverland Ranch from foreclosure last year.

Dr. Tohme claims he's the one who brought Colony Capital LLC to the table -- the company T says forked over $23 million to save Neverland. Dr. Tohme wants his cut of the deal -- which he claims is approximately $2.3 million.

In July of 2008, Dr. Tohme also says Michael promised him 15% of the singer's "gross compensation within the entertainment industry" -- but T has no clue how much he's owed for this one.

The doc wants in excess of $2.3 million.

3. This man needs to take a flying leap. He's delusional (i.e. delusions of grandeur), shady and, I feel, indirectly partly responsible for the untimely demise of Michael Jackson. Let's see the signed paperwork Tohme Tohme ... alleged "promises" don't fly in court.

10. PLEASE PLEASE, ENOUGH ALREADY. I want to file a judgement against Mike as well. I just dont know what to hit him with. Maybe I should just hit him with a judgement for being one of the kindest human beings in the world. I really dont think Mike is dead, he is just hiding to get away from all of this crap.
RIP MJJ

11. Hm. Colony Capital LLC didn't just hand over to MJ 23 million dollars as a present, did they? Isn't the deal a little more complicated than that, involving MJ ending up with a 50 gig tour?

Thome times 2 has boasted he was the one getting MJ back on stage. That's one way of seeing it.

But I am sure Mr Thome (he isn't a doctor) has the signed papers to prove a deal.

Then - hasn't time for creditors' claims run out...?

14. Blanca wont pay out anything on hear say, unless he has some sort of signed documents to clarify TOM TOM'S claim, he's out there.
BLANCA is not going to give anybody MICHAEL'S money without a signed agreement by Michael.
