Katherine Jackson Suing AEG

Katherine Jackson accuses concert promoter AEG of not providing Michael with adequate health care.

From NY Daily News
Michael Jackson's mother sued a concert promoter Wednesday alleging the company failed to provide life-saving equipment and a doctor who was looking out for the pop star's well-being as he prepared for what were intended to be his comeback concerts.
The lawsuit was filed against AEG Live in Los Angeles County Superior Court.

The suit contends AEG and its agents told Jackson the company would provide the equipment and hire Dr. Conrad Murray to care for Jackson so he could perform at the concerts in London.

"AEG's representations to Jackson were false because in reality AEG was merely doing whatever it took to make sure that Michael Jackson could make it to rehearsals and shows and AEG did not provide a doctor who was truly looking out for Jackson's well-being and did not provide equipment," the lawsuit states.
