AEG’s Reply To Lawsuit

AEG Live has reacted to Mrs Jackson’s lawsuit against them, in which she alleges they did not fulfill their legal duties towards Michael ‘to treat him safely and to not put him in harm’s way.’

Mrs Jackson who is acting for herself and Michael’s three children, filed the lawsuit on September 15th, saying; “But AEG, despite its knowledge of Michael Jackson’s physical condition, breached those duties by putting its desire for massive profits from the tour over the health and safety of Michael Jackson.” The documents also claim that in AEG’s contract with Michael it states; “created a legal duty for AEG to act reasonably toward the physical well-being of Michael Jackson.”

“The lawsuit is inaccurate, unsubstantiated and meritless,” attorney Marvin S. Putnam said in a statement released by AEG Live LLC. “Dr. Murray was Mr. Jackson’s longtime personal physician. AEG did not choose him, hire him or supervise him. That said, and in honor of our professional relationship with Mr. Jackson and his Estate, we will have no further public statements.”
