Ex-wife Debbie Rowe expected to get custody of Jackson kids - Los Angeles Times: "Ex-wife Debbie Rowe expected to get custody of Jackson kids"
Michael Jackson's ex-wife and the mother of his two older children is in line to obtain custody of them, even if the pop star designated another person as their guardian after his death, legal experts said Friday.
California law permits a parent to give up custodial but not parental rights in the kind of contract Rowe signed, Blumberg said. The appeals court ruling means that Rowe is the legal mother of the older children, she said, "And if one parent is dead, the other parent is entitled to custody of the child."
