Ist wohl etwas schwer Leute zu finden die ihren Job machen so ganz ohne Lohn.

Host: We talked to Jackson's spokesperson Raymone Bain, who says he's still in Bahrain and adds quote, "He's going to take care of everything at the ranch." Local animal welfare officials say there are still people feeding and looking after the animals. And they're satisfied they're not going to be abandoned. Michael Jackson also faces a $69,000 fine. However, Jackson can keep his ranch running by hiring an outside company who's employees are covered by Workers Comp.

State to sue if Michael Jackson doesn't pay workers by Tuesday

Associated Press

LOS OLIVOS, Calif. - State regulators said Friday they will go after Michael Jackson in court if he fails to meet a Tuesday deadline to pay $100,000 in penalties and $306,000 in back pay owed to nearly 50 workers at his Neverland Ranch.

"If they don't comply then we file suit to get a judgment," said Dean Fryer, a spokesman for the California Department of Industrial Relations.

The ranch operators have until the close of business Tuesday to pay up.

"It's pretty clear that they owe this money," he said. "We've got all these wage claims. People are telling me they haven't been paid from Dec. 19."

Jackson spokeswoman Raymone K. Bain said the entertainer was on a plane from London to the Persian Gulf nation of Bahrain most of the day on Thursday after traveling in Europe.

She said he learned of the situation at Neverland when he arrived in Bahrain late in the day, but she had been unable to discuss it with him because of the time difference.

"He's been made aware," Bain said. "I'm sure this will be resolved."

Jackson, who has been living in Bahrain since being acquitted of child molestation charges last year, has been rumored for some time to be in financial trouble.

Forensic accountant John Duross O'Bryan testified at Jackson's trial that the entertainer had an "ongoing cash crisis" and was spending $20 million to $30 million more per year than he earned.

There have been rumors - repeatedly denied - that Jackson might sell some of his assets, which include the ranch, several homes and a stake in the Beatles record catalog.

Thomas Mesereau Jr., a former Jackson lawyer, said he had been "in touch with people involved with Michael" and "I'm not aware of any plans to sell the ranch."

On Thursday the state barred scores of Jackson employees from working at Neverland after learning that workers compensation coverage had lapsed in January.

Some workers who live on the 2,600-acre estate can remain, but no work can be done until the ranch either obtains coverage or hires an outside company that has it, Fryer said.

The state gave ranch operators five days to appeal the decision and 30 days to appeal a $69,000 fine - $1,000 for each worker - but in the meantime all work must stop, Fryaer said.

An accounting firm that handles ranch finances for Jackson "assured us that they are trying to comply" and had informed employees that they had to stop work, Fryer said.

"To our knowledge at this point they are complying and we will follow up to ensure they are complying," he said.

The ranch includes several amusement park rides and has been home over the years to elephants, giraffes, snakes, orangutans, tigers and a crocodile. Fryer said local animal welfare agencies were notified of the shutdown so they could make arrangements to feed and care for the animals

The animal activist group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals called Friday for Jackson's menagerie to be removed from the ranch and placed in sanctuaries.

"Mr. Jackson is universally known for his love of animals. We hope that he will accept PETA's offer to help ensure that none of the animals at Neverland end up at shabby roadside zoos or exotic-animal auctions or in the hands of exotic animal brokers, breeders, or dealers," PETA said in a letter faxed to Bain.

My brother has been listening to BBC Radio 1 (UK), and the news team called the department involved in this matter. The department told them that Michael Jackson is not classed as the employer, and his name is not on relevant documentation. There is some other management person/team who is/are supposed to be responsible for his affairs (which, to be honest, makes sense to me).

Janet Jackson Will Bail Out Michael -- Again

Janet Jackson Will Bail Out Michael -- Again

Janet Jackson's brother Michael will not be singing "What Have You Done for Me lately?" to her after today. Janet has arrived at her family's home in Encino, Calif., with her business advisers. Their goal: to bail Michael out of his current monster of a predicament: pay his employees and restore the insurances that have lapsed at Neverland.

Poor Janet: she should know that no matter what guarantees are given, Michael Jackson never repays a loan. He considers all such agreements "gifts" and his signature on loan papers, as demonstrated in the past, is meaningless.

This has been an expensive week for Janet, who usually has little to do with her family. She had to make about $80,000 in mortgage payments so that private investors couldn't foreclose on her family home. She also forked over a goodly amount for a funeral for the Jackson 5's drummer, Johnny Jackson.

Sadly, none of her brothers or other family members has made a living doing anything except living off Janet or Michael all these years. And now Michael, without the Prince of Bahrain to help him, is out of luck. It all falls on Janet, an actual pop superstar who is readying an album for fall release.

And one thing is certain: Janet is doing this for her beloved mother Katherine. She doesn't want her to have to start making beds and tuna fish sandwiches for all the "boomerang" Jacksons who never moved out of the house.

Janet is not doing it for her father, that's for sure. There is no love lost between Janet and Joseph Jackson since she discovered at an early age that he'd had numerous affairs and had at least one illegitimate child.

Stay tuned...

Also wenn wirklich was dran ist, dass Janet ihm das jetzt alles bezahlt und er sich tatsächlich mit dem Prinzen zerstritten haben sollte, sehe ich echt endgültig schwarz für die Zukunft. Janet kann doch nicht immer für alle seine Probleme und Schulden aufkommen. Und ohne Prinzen wird das wohl auch nichts mit der Charity Single, einem neuen Album, Def Jam, usw...
Aber: naja, noch ist das ja alles nicht bestätigt. Obwohl ich Roger abgrundtief nicht abkann, hatte er leider viel zu oft Recht in der letzten Zeit...

Raymone Bain, a spokeswoman for Michael Jackson, said the singer was on a plane from London to the Persian Gulf nation of Bahrain after travelling in Europe.

She said he learned of the situation of Neverland when he arrived in Bahrain late in the day, but she had been unable to discuss it with him because of the time difference.

"He's been made aware," Bain said. "I'm sure this will be resolved."

"I have no doubt that it will be worked out very soon," Jackson spokeswoman Raymone Bain told the News-Press.

---------------

Nach ihren Aussagen ist Michael also NICHT in den USA, sondern in Bahrain und war wohl auch in letzter Zeit nicht dort, sondern in Europa.

mhm...

Haaaaaaa Haaaaaaaaaaa

Ich find des so Lustig wollt ich jetzt auch mal loswerden entlich

Roger : "Jermaine lügt ich weiß genau Michael is in London "

Roger:" Michael is in den USA "

Bain : "Michael is in Bahrain "

Lustisch

Naja, Bain gibt auch nur das weiter, was sie soll. Also wenn Michael geheim in den USA war, wird sie das nicht erzählen. Ich will damit nicht sagen, dass Roger Recht hat, aber man weiss ja irgendwie nie so wirklich woran man ist.
Des Weiteren soll er jetzt also, nachdem er in Europa war, wieder zurück in Bahrain sein? Für die Kosten soll Janet aufkommen, oder doch der Prinz? Mit dem er sich verstritten haben soll, aber dennoch wieder bei ihm in Bahrain sein soll? Ich blick da einfach nicht mehr durch. Mal schauen was die nächsten Tage passiert.

Neverland Ranch could have employees back by Monday
Michael Jackson's business associates are scrambling to undo the money woes at his Neverland Valley Ranch and said workers' compensation insurance could be back in place by Monday. With the policy reinstated, employees would be able to return to the 2,600-acre compound off Figueroa Mountain Road near Los Olivos. "I have no doubt that it will be worked out very soon," Jackson spokeswoman Raymone Bain told the News-Press on Friday. More»

Toll wenn Janet ihrem Bruder aus der Klemme hilft! Sie ist diejenige aus dem Clan,
der ich noch am ehesten nen "vernünftigen" Umgang mit Geld zutraue...
Und ich denke sie hat in den letzten 15 Jahren nicht schlecht verdient.

Weil Janet insbesondere zu Beginn ihrer Karriere enorm vom Namen "Michael Jackson"
profitieren durfte, wird sie ihm helften sofern möglich...

PS Janet, meine finanzielle Unterstützung haste - in meinem Regal stehen 2-3 Alben von Dir!
