Summary Jury selection in the case is scheduled to continue Wednesday.
LOS ANGELES (AP) - A Los Angeles judge says except for medical emergencies, she won t consider any more excuses from potential jurors in the lawsuit by Michael Jackson s mother against concert promoter AEG.
Superior Court Judge Yvette Palazuelos received a flurry of last-minute notes Tuesday from people asking to leave the case because of scheduling and financial hardships they had not claimed earlier. She excused 10 more panelists from a pool of 87 and ordered attorneys to begin individual questioning.
One man declared he disliked Jackson and his whole family and thought Katherine Jackson s lawsuit blaming AEG for the singer s death is frivolous. He was excused because his employer wouldn t pay for his jury service. Other prospects were less outspoken.
