The Michael Jackson estate has laid down the gauntlet سے طرف کی demanding that Katherine Jackson's business partner immediately stop exploiting MJ's image -- یا else!!!
Howard Mann -- the guy who had been partnering with Katherine on numerous MJ ventures including her book "Never Can Say Goodbye" -- is now the target of a cease and desist letter ... obtained سے طرف کی TMZ.
The executors -- who until now have tolerated Mann's business ventures with Katherine -- have been pushed over the line and are demanding that Mann stop using MJ's image on banners to promote tonight's "Unveiling of the Jackson Secret والٹ Lithographic Collection" in Beverly Hills.
In fact, Katherine herself is scheduled to make an appearance at the event ... and even sign autographs.
The cease and desist letter -- which is often the prelude to a lawsuit -- is hugely significant because it marks the first time executors, along with estate lawyer Howard Weitzman, have gone after anyone directly associated with Katherine Jackson.
As we have been reporting, Katherine's unauthorized business ventures have irritated the executors who are trying to clear up Michael Jackson's debt and turn the estate into a profitable asset for the benefit of Michael's children.

All alone wishing on stars
Waiting for آپ to find me
One sweet night I knew I would see
A stranger who'd be my friend
When someone in the dark reaches out to you
And touches off a spark that comes shining through
It tells آپ never be afraid
Then somewhere in your دل آپ can feel the glow
A light to keep آپ warm when the night winds blow
Like it was written in the stars I knew
My friend, my someone in the dark was you
Promise me we'll always be
Walking the world together
Hand in hand where dreams never end
My سٹار, ستارہ secret friend and me
When someone in the dark reaches out to you
And touches off a spark that comes shining through
It tells آپ never be afraid
Then somewhere in your دل آپ can feel the glow
A light to keep آپ warm when the night winds blow
Look for the قوس قزح in the sky
I believe آپ and I
Could never really say goodbye
Wherever آپ may be
I'll look up and see
Someone in the dark for me
Wherever آپ may be
I'll look up and see
Someone in the dark for me

The good people of Canada never had a chance to view the Michael Jackson documentary, "Gone Too Soon" -- and now the owners of the flick are declaring war on the distributor ... claiming he personally screwed the entire country.
TMZ obtained a lawsuit filed سے طرف کی Objective Films, LLC -- in which they claim they agreed to sell the French and Canadian distribution rights to a company headed سے طرف کی a guy named Pierre Turgeon for $100k back in 2009.
Objective says they got the first $50k -- but Turgeon flaked on the back half ... and then tried to back out of the deal altogether. Objective was able to get the flick distributed in France ... Canada wasn't so lucky.

Not that we're trying to flatter ourselves, but don't people in Bahrain get TMZ?
AQ Business Consultants has filed a petition in the Michael Jackson Estate case, asking the judge for permission to belatedly file a creditor's claim, on grounds it didn't know there was a time in asking for money.
AQ claims it helped Michael refinance $320,000,000 in loans, for which it was entitled to a $3.2 million fee. AQ claims it's still owed $1.2 mil.
The deadline for filing a claim has passed, but AQ claims it didn't get proper notice.
Howard Weitzman, the lawyer for the Estate, tells TMZ, "I don't believe the claim has any merit but they're late in filing regardless."
But here's the thing ... TMZ is big in Bahrain, so what's the deal?

t appears Katherine Jackson is going to do what Oksana Grigorieva couldn't ... appear on "The Oprah Winfrey Show."
Production trucks have arrived at the Jackson family compound in Encino along with two black SUVs. Members of the production crew told TMZ they are there for "an Oprah shoot."
A security guard told TMZ Oprah will not be دکھانا up ... so this could be filming for an introductory segment of the show.
No word on what the interview might be about ... but we're guessing the words Michael and Jackson will be used often.
UPDATE 5:10 PM PT -- No one has left yet, but there has been a visitor ... the Domino's پیزا delivery guy!
UPDATE 6:23 PM PT -- The production trucks are getting a parking ticket. Put it on Oprah's tab.
UPDATE 6:39 PM PT -- The two SUVs have taken off and the production crew has begun to load equipment. Looks like it's a wrap.

Dr. Conrad Murray won't just face the judge in his manslaughter case on Monday -- we're told an army of MJ شائقین plans a little surprise of its own ... in the protest department.
A rep for Justice4MJ -- the پرستار group planning the demonstration -- tells TMZ that scores of Jackson شائقین plan to attend ... and it's all going down on the freeway overpass near the L.A. courthouse.
We're told when the hearing ends ... the protesters plan to march from the courthouse -- then quickly تقسیم, الگ کریں for the overpasses as Murray makes his exit. They will bid Dr. Murray adieu as he drives off -- probably not in the friendliest of ways.
But we're guessing the protest is the least of Dr. Murray's worries.

The estate owner Paddy Dunning is offering the holiday makers and the شائقین of Jackson to live life like the king of pop. Jackson’s شائقین can now stay at the Coolatore House for a weekend یا so and sleep in Jackson’s بستر for upwards of $1,500.
TMZ has learned the Holmby Hills mansion where Michael Jackson died is getting a serious boost in security -- so nobody messes with the super-expensive property while it's on the market.
Sources connected to the ہوم tell us ... now that people know the ہوم is "vacated and for sale, the property owners have increased security to keep it safe."
As we previously reported, the owners are requiring potential buyers to go through an "extensive pre-qualifying check" before they can even walk in the door ... just to keep out the riffraff.
The ہوم is currently on the market for a cool $28 mil.

An MJ پرستار club is on a desperate mission to clean up the حالیہ graffiti onslaught outside the King of Pop's tomb -- claiming a few bad apples could spoil everything for MJ's non-vandal followers.
The Official Michael Jackson شائقین of Southern California have extended an زیتون branch to Forest Lawn Cemetery -- where MJ is buried -- offering to clean up the حالیہ wave of hidden vandalism outside the singer's tomb ... before the cemetery decides to ban MJ شائقین altogether.
A rep for the group -- which organizes a monthly pilgrimage to MJ's burial place -- tells TMZ, they want to "fix this mess" so FLC doesn't associate MJ's upstanding شائقین with a bunch of sharpie-wielding hoodlums.
As TMZ first reported, Forest Lawn is currently on red alert over the illegal doodles -- hunting down the artists responsible ... and threatening to ban any potential copycats for life.
No word if Forest Lawn will take the پرستار group up on their offer.
