Michael Jackson ordered to pay $256,000 in overdue fees to law firm

Singer Michael Jackson has been ordered to pay more than 256,000 dollars in overdue fees to a California law firm, court records have revealed.


Documents show that the former King of Pop must pay 216,837 dollars in fees and 39,177 dollars in interest to law firm of Ayscough and Marar after failing to reimburse them for their services following his 2005 child molestation case.

Ayscough and Marar sued Jackson on February 21, 2006 in Torrance Superior Court, near Los Angeles.

The case was moved to Los Angeles civil courthouse last year at the request of Jackson's lawyers, but last month a judge ruled in favor of the law firm.

It is believed Jackson's lawyers have agreed to pay the outstanding fees.
