Katherine Jackson Way Too Thorough for Some

Executors of Michael Jackson's estate object to his mom's "voluminous, burdensome" discovery requests

Discovery is one thing. Fifteen discovery demands that measure "several inches high" are another.

Attorneys for the two men whom Michael Jackson appointed executors of his estate are objecting to his mother's request for, according to them, "all documents, letters, photographs, notebooks, DVDs, CDs, report, voice recordings, calendars, drawings, diaries, summaries, storyboards, journals, files, business records, emails, notes, schedules" in special administrator John Branca's possession that concern her son.

Our patience is exhausted just writing all that, so you can imagine how they feel.

Katherine Jackson's attorney, L. Londell McMillan, has filed papers requesting interviews with Branca and coexecutor John McCLain and petitioning a judge for access to various documents, including Jackson's contract dealings with AEG Live, legal files and insurance records.

All of their requests were filed to speed up the process of obtaining "important personal, business and legal information and documents relating to Michael Jackson."

Branca and McClain's camp, however, would call Katherine's demands a bit...excessive.

She "has served voluminous, burdensome, and evasive discovery demands...on the Special Administrators" and she wants it all in court by Aug. 3, their attorney, Howard Weitzman, wrote in documents obtained by E! News.

A hearing on estate and custody issues has long been scheduled for Monday, and Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Mitchell Beckloff will not be considering any of these discovery requests until then.

Beckloff will also examine Branca and McClain's petition for an undisclosed amount of money from the estate to give to Katherine and Jackson's three kids, who have primarily been staying with their grandmother since their dad died.

McMillan has said that Katherine does not plan on challenging the content of the King of Pop's will, per se—though they did file a motion seeking the court's guidance on whether objecting to the choice of executors would constitute a challenge.
