Joe Jackson claims there was “no justification” for him to be excluded from getting money from Michael Jackson’s estate… Now he’s asking a judge to grant him a monthly allowance. Joe just filed papers in L.A. County Superior Court, claiming he’s “entitled to his own independent family allowance.” In the documents, Leonard Rowe — a guy who claims to have been MJ’s manager — says Michael used to give his mother Katherine up to $60,000 a month to live on, and that Michael instructed her to give half of it to Joe. Joe claims Michael’s estate has “earned more than $100 million dollars in the first seven (7) weeks following Michael Jackson’s death” and is “well able to afford a family allowance for Joe Jackson.”

Joe says he has $15,425 in total monthly expenses, including the following:

— $2,500 eating out

— $2,000 for air travel

— $3,000 for hotel bills

— $1,000 for groceries

— $1,200 for rent

— $50 in charitable contributions
