Katherine Jackson officially filed a wrongful death lawsuit against A.E.G. with Prince, Paris, and Blanket, and the trial began in April 2013.
Lawyers sought up to $1.5 billion, an estimation of what Michael Jackson could have earned over the months since his death, if he were alive, in the case, but, in October 2013, a jury determined that A.E.G. wasn’t responsible for Michael’s death.
According to A.E.G. lawyer Marvin S. Putnam, although Michael Jackson’s death was a terrible tragedy, it was not a tragedy of A.E.G. Live’s making.
In 2013, Prince made his first foray into being a media personality. He served as a guest correspondent for the entertainment news program “Entertainment Tonight.”
On the show, Michael Jr. interviewed James Franco, Zach Braff, and director Sam Raimi about their film “Oz the Great and Powerful.”
He has expressed an interest in getting more involved in show business, telling, “Entertaiment Tonight” that he is looking to become well-rounded as a producer, director, screenwriter, and actor.
Jackson graduated from Buckley School, located in Sherman Oaks, California, in May 2015. Many of his family members were on hand to celebrate the important milestone, including sister Paris, grandmother Katherine and aunt La Toya. He has decided to attend Loyola Marymount College in Los Angeles.
