It allowed HBO to air&nbsp;<em>Michael Jackson in Concert in Bucharest: The Dangerous Tour<\/em>&nbsp;and included language that the channel would&nbsp;<em>not<\/em>&nbsp;disparage the singer at any future point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2019\/biz\/news\/michael-jackson-estate-lawsuit-leaving-neverland-hbo-counters-1203204141\/\" target=\"_blank\">Variety<\/a>, however, the TV network is \u201cimmune from a defamation claim,\u201d as Jackson died a decade ago. So they\u2019re now hitting back against the estate, rebutting claims of a contract breach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pmcdeadline2.files.wordpress.com\/2019\/05\/leaving-neverland-opp-to-compel-arbitration.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">According to HBO attorneys<\/a>&nbsp;Daniel Petrocelli and Theodore Boutrous, HBO\u2019s contract with Jackson expired once the company fulfilled its obligations of airing the 1992 concert film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jackson was never once disparaged in the time HBO aired the concert film, they argue. The last time it aired through their network was in Oct. 1992 \u2014 which the lawyers suggested would have marked the official end of their deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the Jackson estate never clarified how long the singer would be protected from HBO through the decades-old non-disparagement clause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cThe vague and over-broad interpretation of the non-disparagement sentence that petitioners urge this court to adopt would, if accepted, violate HBO\u2019s First Amendment right to distribute expressive content on an issue of public concern,\u201d argued the lawyers.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, HBO questioned how long the estate believed Jackson would be protected under \u201cvague interpretation,\u201d adding that&nbsp;<em>Leaving Neverland&nbsp;<\/em>was separate from their contract and therefore did not breach any deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They concluded that the film was produced to raise awareness of sexual abuse, rather than defame the singer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Applying the rules of the non-disparagement deal&nbsp;<em>now<\/em>&nbsp;would \u201crun afoul of the public policy embodied in numerous California statutes to protect children from sexual abuse,\u201d according to the HBO party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In response, <a href=\"https:\/\/dev.creativespikedigital.com\/lftc\/attorneys\/bryan-j-freedman\/\">the estate\u2019s lawyer, Bryan Freedman<\/a>, revealed that the family wants an \u201carbitration open to the public for all to see,\u201d according to&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/2019\/05\/michael-jackson-leaving-neverland-lawsuit-sexual-abuse-claims-hbo-arbitration-response-1202606714\/\" target=\"_blank\">Deadline<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He did not hold back in his defence and sarcastically questioned why HBO would challenge their 27-year-old contract if they believed it no longer applied or had \u201cexpired.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe reason why,\u201d he continued, \u201cis because they know they were complicit in this one-sided farce of a money grab that clearly violates the agreement.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While making his argument, Freedman took a slash at the Dan Reed-directed documentary, suggesting it was one-sided \u2014 which has been a recurring speculation among the Jackson family. The statement added:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cNow they\u2019re trying to delay the inevitable beating that they will suffer when this matter is adjudicated. Stay tuned because at least we are offering them a chance to tell their side of the story unlike they did in the creation of the one-sided fiction intended to disparage Michael Jackson.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Let this be a warning to all talent that HBO will disregard the truth and distribute fictitious one-sided content in violation of the artists\u2019 rights it promised to protect,\u201d continued Freeman. \u201cMake no mistake, HBO will be held responsible for its reprehensible conduct.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As of this writing, the legal dispute between The Jackson Estate and HBO is ongoing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To this day, the truth about Jackson remains unknown, but the singer was never found guilty of any crime in a court of law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jackson denied all sexual assault accusations throughout his life, and since his death, he\u2019s been unable to either defend himself in the court of public opinion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ahead of the release of&nbsp;Leaving Neverland,&nbsp;the Michael Jackson Estate filed a&nbsp;lawsuit against HBO, asking for US$100 million.
