If you're a Jackson fan then you'll be happy to know that at the end of next month there's an auction scheduled with over 1,100 Jackson family items set to go up on the block. One person who isn't so happy about it, however, is the biggest Jackson of all -- Michael himself.

Items available for bidding will include everything from handwritten lyrics to the old Jackson 5 hit ABC to Michael Jackson's gold record for Thriller. Michael claims he had no idea his memorabilia was going to be included in the auction, and is considering possible legal action to stop it.

I can see how it would be sad to see somebody else selling off your old stuff for a profit, but as far as lawsuits go I can't imagine anybody would try to auction off celebrity property, especially Jackson property in such a public way, unless they had the right to do so? But you never know, people can be pretty crazy.
