The Michael Jackson estate and HBO are headed to arbitration in their legal dispute over Leaving Neverland, the 2019 documentary detailing allegations of child sex abuse against the late pop star. In a win for the estate, a federal appellate court on Monday upheld a lower court ruling that an arbitration agreement in a non-disparagement clause signed by HBO 28 years ago while collaborating with Jackson on a live concert release from his
Dangerous tour is still valid.
