Jackson receives jury summons

Michael Jackson has received a jury summons at his Neverland ranch and is expected to be exempt because he lives outside the US, his lawyers say.

Michael Jackson has received a jury summons, posted to his Neverland ranch, just four months after he was in court over those child molestation charges. The fact that he is currently in Britain means that he will probably be able to get out of serving, though. Santa Barbara jury commissioner Gary Blair said "All he has to do is show he has legal residency somewhere else and he'll be exempted."

Jackson's legal team have filed the necessary paperwork requesting a deferment; our old friend Thomas Meserau said "He is permanently living outside of the United States."
