Joe Jackson Wants Michael's Money

According to TMZ, Papa Joe requested from a judge to get a monthly allowance of Michael Jackson’s estate. The papers were filed today in LA County Superior Court, Joe is claiming he's "entitled to his own independent family allowance." The papers, written by Joe’s manager Leonard Rowe, claim Michael used to give his mother Katherine Jackson up to $60,000 a month to live on and that she was supposed to split it with Joe. Joe claims Michael's estate has "earned more than $100 million dollars in the first seven weeks following Michael Jackson's death" and is "well able to afford a family allowance for Joe Jackson." Joe says he has $15,425 in total monthly expenses, including the following:

$2,500 eating out

$2,000 in air travel

$3,000 in hotel bills

$1,000 in groceries

$1,200 in rent
$50 in charitable contributions

Only 50.oo for charitable contributions? A mess.
