Further Legal Proceedings for Michael Jackson

Michael testified in London hotel two weeks ago

October 5, 2005

The latest lawsuit in the Marcel Avram case was not the only legal proceeding that has concerned Michael recently. He apparently testified in a conference room of the London Dorchester Hotel on the 23rd September for a deposition regarding a lawsuit filed against him by his former producer Marc Schaffel.

The deposition took place in London, according to Roger Friedman of FOX News, because Michael did not want to return to Los Angeles from Bahrain. A Californian Judge allowed the questions to be asked in London at attorney's requests.

Schaffel has sued Michael for $4 million claiming he loaned him money and expensive items with the promise of reimbursement. He is also one of the men who was named as an un-indicted co-conspirator with Michael in his recent case against accusations of child abuse, of which he was of course vindicated.

During the eight-hour deposition Michael was represented by attorney Thomas Mesereau who of course also represented him during his recent acquittal.
