Michael Jackson Estate to Joe: No, No, No

Lawyers for Michael Jackson's estate have filed legal papers opposing Joe Jackson's attempt to get his son's UCLA medical records -- records Joe wants in order to file a wrongful death lawsuit.

Estate lawyers say there are three reasons why Joe is not entitled to medical records.

1. Joe was not a dependent of Michael Jackson and therefore not legally entitled to sue for the wrongful death of his son.

2. Joe has filed his request for medical records in connection with his attempt to get an allowance from the estate, and an allowance has nothing to do with wrongful death.

3. There is a physician-patient privilege that bars Joe from getting the medical records.

This is ridiculous.

If Dr Murray is about to be arrested... wont the autopsy reports and the medical records be revealed in court???  Its vital evidence, it cant be kept secret???

But they block Joe?

Yes, strange! Those records should be the most important thing in the case...

UPDATE: 2: 32 PM PT. One of the lawyers Dr. Murray, Ed Chernoff, has just published on its website that is working with the DA to turn your customer after the submission of the case. Chernoff said: "the detention of Dr. Murray would be a waste of money, time and resources". The LAPD requests to differentiate.

And that's what Michael was saying about the case, read about the web alfinal TMZ, the link posted ;)
