<section id="cb-73748138f309e6ef0d609faa34b2440c" class="canvas-block canvas-block-permalink canvas-text-block canvas-text-block-permalink canvas-text-block--default " data-context="{";section";:";permalink";,";name";:";text_block";}">Robson claims Jackson befriended him after he moved to the U.S. from Australia as a child. </section>
<p>The 40-year-old Brisbane native says Jackson eventually went on to molest him numerous times at his Neverland Ranch from the ages of 7 to 14.</p>
<p>However, attorneys for the company claim they had no legal obligation to protect Robson because it had no control over the legendary singer and his actions, the outlet reports.</p>
<p>The trial court initially sided with Jackson&#8217;s estate and dismissed the case in April 2021. But the Court of Appeals&#8217; ruling this week will ultimately return the case to trial.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Robson Claimed In 2005 That MJ Never Molested Him, But Filed Lawsuit In 2013 Claiming Otherwise</h3>
<p>At a trial involving another boy in 2005, Robson testified that he slept in the same bed as the singer. However, nothing untoward happened.</p>
<p>Despite this, he later altered his account and filed a lawsuit against the late singer&#8217;s corporation in 2013.</p>
<p>There, Robson claimed he had lied during his initial testimony because of &#8220;complete manipulation and brainwashing.&#8221;</p>
<p>Robson made <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-12236649/Michael-Jackson-molestation-accuser-Wade-Robson-set-head-trial-late-singers-corporation.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">headlines four years ago</a> for his involvement in the 2019 HBO documentary, &#8220;Leaving Neverland,&#8221; per the <em>Daily Mail</em>.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, <strong>James Safechuck</strong>, who <a href="https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/story/2023-06-27/michael-jackson-corporations-face-trial-over-molestation-allegations-employees-complicit" target="_blank" rel="noopener">filed a similar lawsuit</a> against MJJ Productions, will also likely be allowed to go to trial now based on the Robson ruling, according to the <em>Los Angeles Times</em>.</p>
<p>Safechuck was also featured in the documentary, <em><strong>The Shade Room</strong></em> <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/michael-jacksons-children-may-reportedly-sue-the-two-accusers-in-the-leaving-neverland-docuseries/?_gl=1*11wtt6i*_up*MQ..*_ga*MTEwNzY2MTIyNi4xNjg3ODczODEx*_ga_V2HX8YP3XL*MTY4Nzg3MzgxMC4xLjAuMTY4Nzg3MzgxMC4wLjAuMA.." target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported at the time.</a></p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Robson and Safechuck Featured In 2019 Documentary &#8220;Leaving Neverland&#8221;</h3>
<p>‘Leaving Neverland’ chronicled the alleged abuse both Robson and Safechuck claimed they experienced at the hands of Michael Jackson over several years.</p>
<p>Oprah hosted a panel after the show&#8217;s debut to give the two a platform to discuss their abuse.</p>
<p>Jackson&#8217;s children considered filing a lawsuit against Robson and Safechuck following the release of &#8220;Leaving Neverland.&#8221;</p>
<p>They reportedly only asked for both Robson and Safechuck to issue an apology.</p>
<p>A source close to the situation said: “It’s very important to them they carry forward” their father’s “legacy of philanthropy and humility.”</p>
