Michael Jackson’s three children and mother are facing financial restrictions from his trust until his estate resolves an ongoing tax dispute with the IRS.

According to court documents obtained by People and filed on May 28, Prince, Paris, and Bigi Jackson, as well as their grandmother Katherine, will not receive any distributions from the trust until the tax issue is resolved.

The dispute originated from an IRS audit of the estate’s federal tax return, alleging undervaluation of assets and claiming $700 million in taxes and penalties. Although the estate won a trial in tax court in 2021, a motion for reconsideration regarding the value of Jackson’s music catalog, known as Mijac, is still pending.

Until the value of the estate is determined for tax purposes and agreed upon by the IRS, no distributions can be made. Despite requests from attorneys to distribute a portion of the estate, executors argued against it, stating the amount cannot be determined safely at this time.

Prince, born in 1997, is Jackson’s first child with ex-wife Debbie Rowe, while Paris followed in 1998. Bigi, also known as Blanket, was born via surrogate in 2002. The recent filing comes after Sony Music Group purchased half of Jackson’s music catalog for at least $600 million.

Amidst these financial matters, Bigi is also involved in a legal dispute with his grandmother Katherine. In March, he filed legal papers to block her from using estate funds during an extended legal battle with the estate executors.

This ongoing legal saga adds another layer to the complexities surrounding Jackson’s estate, nearly 15 years after his death in 2009. Despite efforts from his survivors to oppose the sale of a large portion of his catalog by the estate executors, a partial sale was announced last month. Both Prince and Paris have sought to keep their positions private in this matter, citing personal and family reasons.
