| A Los Angeles judge today ruled that Michael Jackson's father will not inherit any of the King of Pop's assets, as it emerged the star's funeral cost an incredible $1million.
Joe Jackson had taken legal action over Michael's estate after discovering that he had been written out of the Thriller star's will.
However Superior Court Judge Mitchell Beckloff has today threw out the 80-year-old's objection on the grounds that the singer's wishes had be respected.
Judge Beckloff said : "I don't think he gets to step into this and create further litigation. Joe Jackson takes none of this estate. This is a decision his son made."
However, Joe Jackson's request to secure an allowance from the singer's estate has yet to be considered with a hearing on the matter for December 10.
Meanwhile, a lawyer acting for Jacko's mother Katherine Jackson confirmed she was ending her war with the executors appointed in her son's will.
"She wants the fighting to end and to get on with the business of making money for the estate and not spending money on these disputes," her attorney Adam Streisand told a judge.
The developments came as it was revealed Jackson's September funeral cost more than a $1million.
Court papers show the Jackson estate paid out $35,000 for the star's burial garments, along with $3,682 for framing of his photo and $21,455 for the hire of a restaurant for a wake.
The biggest outlay was a $855,730.31 contract with Forest Lawn Memorial Park for Jackson's final resting place. | |

| I'm pleased about this - his father deserves nothing.... Michael Jackson didn't want him to have any of his assets & his wishes have been granted. | |

| i can't work out how people can go to the courts over someones will just because they are written out of the will or don't agree .... will's are what the person wanted to happen to their assets and that should be the end of it and the courts shouldn't be able to change it! | |

| You cannot fight against someone for them not putting you in their will as TheILG said, a will is a will | |
