T.J. Jackson (the 34-year-old son of Michael’s brother Tito Jackson) has been appointed the temporary guardian of Michael Jackson's children.
On Wednesday, an L.A. probate court judge suspended Katherine Jackson as the guardian of Paris, Prince and Blanket because she’s been in Arizona and hasn’t spoken to the kids in more than a week, having possibly been prevented by a third party (presumably Jermaine , Randy and janet Jackson ).
The lawyer for Paris, Prince and Blanket said the kids were in favor of having T.J. as their temporary guardian.
As Gossip Cop previously reported, Katherine has been out of town amid Familt chaos and an alleged plot by her children to take control of the estate.
On Tuesday, it was alleged that Janet and Paris had slapped each other during a heated altercation at the children’s home.
Katherine is said to be returning home today.
Stay Tune for updates.
Today is 10th or 11th day these kids have been without the supervision of their legal guardian.
I don't know if Katherine is where she is voluntarily or not, but it is good that kids are out of the house until things settle down!
Katherine Jackson has been temporarily stripped of her guardianship over Michael Jackson's 3 kids, and an L.A. judge just appointed Tito Jackson's son TJ to become the temporary guardian.
And there's more ... Judge Mitch Beckloff advised TJ and his lawyer, Charles Shultz, to seek a permanent guardianship, after hearing stories that Katherine may have been held against her will "from third parties." Translation -- Randy, Janet, Jermaine and Rebbie.
Before handing down the ruling, TJ's lawyer told the judge TJ got a strange phone call from Katherine yesterday. TJ said, "I've never heard my grandmother talk like that." TJ added, "She wasn't sharp. The pauses, choice of vocabulary ... she has not used certain phrases like that before." TJ thought she was talking in code. TJ choked up as he addressed the court.
TMZ broke the story that TJ would make this move -- a move supported by Paris, Prince, and Blanket, as well as the Michael Jackson Estate.
The judge said Katherine was not suspended for wrongdoing, but that she was prevented from doing her guardianship by the third parties who are clearly Randy, Janet, Jermaine and Rebbie.
Katherine's lawyer, Sandra Ribera, added that she (Sandra) has been to the house several times recently and believes Katherine has been held against her will.
Katherine's lawyer, Perry Sanders, says he would vigorously oppose any move to permanently strip Katherine of her guardianship duties.
Perry also says ... when Katherine returns to L.A., he will file a motion to reinstate her as guardian .
