California seeks tiny tax fee from Jackson estate

ADD the state of California to the list of those who claim Michael Jackson owes them money, but the debt isn't exactly going to close the state's budget gap.

California's tax board filed a creditor's claim Wednesday against the late King of Pop's estate for US$1,647. The state claims the money is due because it had to request that Jackson file a state income tax form for the 2007 tax year.

Jackson's estate has been hit with dozens of creditor's claims ranging from a few thousand dollars to millions in allegedly unpaid debts.

The late singer's estate evaluates each claim before deciding whether to pay it. Howard Weitzman, an attorney for Jackson's estate, says he hasn't seen California's claim but that if the money is owed, it'll get paid.
