"Reviving Sexual Abuse Lawsuits: 'Leaving Neverland' Accusers Target Michael Jackson"

Two men who accused Michael Jackson of sexually abusing them as children in the documentary "Leaving Neverland" could have their sexual abuse lawsuits against Jackson's estate revived by a California appeals court. The lawsuits were initially dismissed in 2017 due to the state's statute of limitations, but were resurrected in 2020 after a new bill extended the limitations. However, they were dismissed again in 2021. The 2nd District Court of Appeals has now reversed the dismissal, returning the cases to court. Attorneys representing Jackson's estate will argue against the cases. Jackson's estate has repeatedly denied the allegations.
