California Wants Michael’s Foundation to Pay Taxes

Last Wednesday, the state of California filed a request for payment of $1,647,000 against the Michael Jackson Foundation. After Michael’s death, his foundation faced various tax demands ranging from a few thousand dollars to several million dollars. Howard Weitzman, one of the lawyers for the Michael Jackson Foundation, said that if the state’s request is correct, the money will be paid. The lawyers for the Michael Jackson Foundation will decide whether to pay or ignore each request after checking its validity and accuracy.
