Ah, Papa Joe. He's determined to get his slice of the pie, one way or another, whether Michael would have wanted him to have it or not.

Joe Jackson Gets Wrongful Death Ball Rolling

Posted Mar 24th 2010 1:28PM by TMZ Staff



TMZ has learned Joe Jackson will send Dr. Conrad Murray's lawyer a notice next week that he will be filing a wrongful death lawsuit against the doc for the death of Michael Jackson.

According to California law, the plaintiff in a medical malpractice, wrongful death suit must give 90 days notice before filing the case in court.

Brian Oxman, Joe Jackson's lawyer, tells TMZ the suit will ask punitive damages, economic support, loss of companionship and loss of consortium (deprivation of family relationship). It will seek an unspecified amount of money damages.

Oxman says the case will be filed in L.A. County Superior Court. So far, only Joe has signed up, but Oxman says he will add any family member who wants in as a plaintiff.

UPDATE: Ed Chernoff, Dr. Murray's lawyer, just reacted to Oxman's move by saying, "That's like throwing a bucket of water on a man drowning in the ocean." Translation -- good luck collecting anything.

1. Poor Michael, even in death he's still Joe's cash cow. n/t

2. I feel bad for Michael J. He seems to have represented nothing but

money to his family all his life and now even in death.

I'm surprised Joe isn't selling locks of Michael's hair on eBay.
