The estate of Michael Jackson has prevented the potential sale of the singer’s property, which they deem had been stolen from his home just after his death.

TMZ obtained legal documents that confirmed a judge had issued a preliminary injunction barring Jeffre Phillips from selling items that he had allegedly removed from Michael Jackson’s residence in 2009.

The pop singer’s estate claimed that Phillips had been engaged to one of MJ's siblings at the time and had taken advantage of the “chaos and sadness around Michael’s death” to take personal and private items from Carolwood House, where Michael Jackson resided before he passed away.

The estate claimed that Phillips had taken items including Michael’s iPhone, his California driver’s license, some prescription pill bottles with pills inside and a collection of handwritten notes, during his nine-day stay at Carolwood House.

He also stole clothes, including the pyjamas that Michael was wearing in the final hours before his death.

In addition, his estate said that Phillips had also taken a resuscitator tube that may have been used on Michael.

Michael Jackson passed away in his home in Los Angeles, on June 25, 2009, after suffering a cardiac arrest.

The 50-year-old King of Pop’s death was caused by a fatal concoction of drugs, including propofol and benzodiazepine.

It had been found that his personal in-house doctor, Conrad Murray, had administered the drugs to him, in order to treat the singer's struggle with insomnia.

He left behind an estimated £1.7billion fortune after his death, with 40% going to his children.
