We will be seeing MJ threads for many months to come. The expected worth of the Beatles catalog is 2 billion according to one source.
If he had waited to die just a few more months he would have escaped some nasty inheritance tax.
I see people saying that Joe will get Katherine’s inheritance.
California law says not necessarily so.

CNN asked about their wedding anniversary. Supposedly there was a celebration. Don’t know if they are legally separated or not.
It will be fasincating to watch from a legal and social perspective. I hope the Nation of Islam gets the screws put to them about their involvement in his affairs. I wouldn’t be surprised if a new will surfaces influenced by them.
The one burning question for me is ...did Joe castrate him.
I’m no lawyer but I know a little bit about this stuff.Among the things that will need to be established in the probate courts are 1) was he legally married when he died? If he was,and his “wife” didn’t sign any kind of prenup,she’d be *automatically* entitled to a portion of his estate *regardless*.2)Were those kids his,biologically...and,if not,did ever *legally* adopt them? If they were his or if he did adopt them they could very well wind up getting a portion of his estate.Perhaps even a big portion.3)Assuming he wrote one or more wills,was he of sound mind (as defined by California probate law) when he wrote any of them? If he didn’t leave any wills or if it’s proven that he didn’t have the mental capacity (as defined by California probate law) to do so when it/they was/were written then the fur will *really* fly.Actually,the fur will fly if any attempt is made to overturn a will on the basis of diminished capacity.
Joe was responsible for female hormone injections when he was little I was told... I had friends at CBS during 70’s show run there who suspected that and other sad things... but the mom still made their clothes for all the early performances...
