Initially, both Bigi and Katherine opposed the executors of Jackson\u2019s estate in a legal matter, attempting to halt a business transaction. While the specifics of the transaction remain undisclosed, it apparently involved the sale of half of the late singer\u2019s music catalog to Sony, per\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tmz.com\/2024\/03\/20\/michael-jackson-son-blanket-bigi-no-pay-grandmother-attorney-fees-katherine-jackson\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">TMZ<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Despite their joint efforts, Bigi and Katherine\u2019s case was unsuccessful, resulting in the court ruling against them. Subsequently, while Bigi chose to discontinue his involvement in the case, Katherine persisted and decided to appeal the decision.<\/p>\n<p>Disagreeing with her choice, Bigi is now looking to prevent her from using Michael\u2019s estate funds to cover legal expenses related to the appeal.<\/p>\n<p>Expressing skepticism about the success and benefits of Katherine\u2019s appeal, Bigi is reportedly questioning the necessity of continued litigation and is urging the court to limit reimbursement for expenses incurred before the appeal.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-147467 lazyautosizes lazyloaded\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-main.newsner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/03\/25141927\/GettyImages-88693942-scaled.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, 664px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-main.newsner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/03\/25141927\/GettyImages-88693942-scaled.jpg 2408w, https:\/\/cdn-main.newsner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/03\/25141927\/GettyImages-88693942-768x817.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-main.newsner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/03\/25141927\/GettyImages-88693942-1445x1536.jpg 1445w, https:\/\/cdn-main.newsner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/03\/25141927\/GettyImages-88693942-1926x2048.jpg 1926w\" alt=\"\" width=\"2408\" height=\"2560\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn-main.newsner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/03\/25141927\/GettyImages-88693942-scaled.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-main.newsner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/03\/25141927\/GettyImages-88693942-scaled.jpg 2408w, https:\/\/cdn-main.newsner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/03\/25141927\/GettyImages-88693942-768x817.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-main.newsner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/03\/25141927\/GettyImages-88693942-1445x1536.jpg 1445w, https:\/\/cdn-main.newsner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/03\/25141927\/GettyImages-88693942-1926x2048.jpg 1926w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-eio-rwidth=\"2408\" data-eio-rheight=\"2560\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Michael Jackson pictured with Katherine Jackson in 2005.
