We are in the phase where one party files a summary judgment motion asking to dismiss all or parts of a lawsuit before it goes to trial. AEG has just filed their summary judgment motion in an attempt to dismiss Katherine Jackson's lawsuit against them. 

I will post a brief info and post the documents and then update the thread with the summaries etc. Feel free to read, comment and summarize as well. We are opening this thread first at News and Happenings due to significance of it, later it'll be moved to Trials and Tribulations.

AEG Live, Gongaware and Phillips has filed their own summary judgment motion. I'll be posting the documents for it. 

AEG Inc, and Leiweike has filed a separate summary judgment motion. I will not be posting it but mainly they argue that the parent company AEG and Leiweike had no contact or involvement with Michael or Murray and therefore they should be removed as parties.

Now the doctors send Michael's medical records to MJ Estate, MJ Estate goes over them, redacts any personal and irrelevant information and then marks them confidential and sends it to parties.
