Paris Jackson is escalating her fight over her father Michael Jackson’s estate, accusing the two men running it of using their positions to enrich themselves instead of protecting her father’s legacy. The 27-year-old filed a new objection in Los Angeles court on November 18th, challenging the estate’s long-delayed accounting for the year 2021. She and her brothers, Prince, 28, and Bigi, 23, did not receive that financial breakdown until this past September, nearly four years late.

In the filing, Paris says she is alarmed by the “enormous sums of cash” that the co executors, John Branca and John McClain, are keeping idle rather than investing. She claims their decisions show they are no longer acting in the best interest of her family. Her lawyers wrote, “Paris is increasingly concerned the Estate has become the vehicle for John Branca to enrich and aggrandize himself, rather than serve the beneficiaries’ best interests and steadfastly preserve her father’s legacy.”

Sources close to the estate pushed back, calling her objection “another misguided attempt” by her attorneys and insisting that “all the beneficiaries are well taken care of by the Estate.”
