Jackson Estate Hit With Another Creditor’s Claim
By WENNTuesday, October 27, 2009
The estate of MICHAEL JACKSON is facing yet another lawsuit - a former choreographer now claims he is owed $144,500 (£90,300) in unpaid fees.
Dancer LaVelle Smith Jr. alleges he worked for the late King of Pop between 2008 and early 2009, but was only paid part of the salary he agreed with Jackson.
In a suit filed in Los Angeles on Monday (26Oct09), Smith Jr. states he is still owed $144,500 (GBP96,300) by the administrators of the singer’s fortune, according to TMZ.com.
It is the latest in a long line of creditors’ claims against the late superstar’s estate since his death in June (09) - in September (09) alone, officials were hit with non-payment suits from an accounting firm, a Las Vegas security business and a hairstylist.
