Jackson's dad seeks removal of will administrators

Associated Press - November 10, 2009 12:24 PM ET

LOS ANGELES (AP) - An attorney for Michael Jackson's father is trying to convince a judge that the administrators of his son's will have a conflict of interest and should not handle the case.

A motion from Joseph Jackson's attorney, Brian Oxman, will likely be addressed at a hearing Tuesday regarding the Michael Jackson estate.

The 60-page motion intensifies Joseph Jackson's bid to get money from his son's estate by making fraud accusations against the will's administrators, John Branca and John McClain.

Joseph Jackson was omitted from his son's will, with all of Michael Jackson's assets going to his mother, his children and children's charities.

It was unclear whether Joseph Jackson has the legal standing to challenge the will's provisions.
