Jackson Estate Settles Lawsuit Over Heal the World
By Anthony McCartney
LOS ANGELES -(AP) - Michael Jackson's estate reached a settlement that ended its lengthy fight with a nonprofit that claimed it was the successor to the singer's Heal the World charity.
The deal came just as a trial was set to begin to decide ownership of lucrative trademarks.
The singer's estate battled the Heal the World Foundation in federal court for more than 18 months, alleging it was misusing trademarks and likeness rights to create an association with Jackson's defunct charity.
