Elvis Presley’s Granddaughter Hard Stops Graceland Auction (freerepublic.com):

“Elvis Presley’s granddaughter sent an investment company intent on auctioning off Graceland running.

Riley Keough didn’t just convince a judge to block the auction of Graceland on Thursday. The actor’s legal response scared off Naussany Investments and Private Lending LLC for good.

Elvis Presley Enterprises (Graceland) labeled claims made by Naussany as fraudulent upon learning they planned to auction Graceland to get back money loaned to Lisa Marie Presley in 2018. Keough’s lawyer said the loan never happened and Naussany “appears to be a false entity created for the purpose of defrauding.”

A quick family tree is necessary to understand the story. Lisa Marie Presley was Elvis Presley’s only child and the one who inherited his home, Graceland. Upon her death in 2023, her daughter Riley Keough became the sole heir. The home is a museum, popular tourist attraction and where much of the family is buried.

A Shelby County (Memphis) judge placed a temporary injunction on the auction on Wednesday morning. Soon after, KY3 TV shares that the investment company withdrew their claim with prejudice, meaning they can’t re-file. They said they meant Keough no harm, but no one has yet gotten to the bottom of who they are and if the claim was fraudulent.

The Daisy Jones and the Six star said not only were the loan documents fake, her mother’s signature was a forgery. Furthermore she said Naussany “is not a real entity.” Memphis newspaper the Commercial Appeal tried to track down the company or anyone associated and came up dry.” …….

Yo’ messin’ with the King.

I called Hogan a Romney lite. I was wrong. I think he is worst than Romney. His latest ads are supporting a Pro Choice Federal law.

Dam-Busted :: SteynOnline:

“Some goodish news out of the King’s Bench Division of the High Court of England, where I shall be three weeks from today. As you know, I regard the US Government’s pursuit of Wikileaks founder Julian Assange as an outrage. Nothing to do with politics (I doubt he and I would agree on much); it’s a point of principle. You can watch our special Steyn Show with Mr Assange’s brother here, but my general position was articulated in a recent discussion with Conrad Black: given the dirty stinkin’ rotten corrupt US Department of Justice, no country – whether Denmark or Sudan – should be extraditing its nationals to America.

For close to a decade-and-a-half, the Deep State has been determined to get Assange, an Australian subject of the Crown who owes them no allegiance, for the crime of embarrassing them. I do not want American judicial norms applied extra-territorially: Julian Assange has been living under confinement for twelve years (half of them in Belmarsh), despite having been convicted of no crime. He was too sick to attend court yesterday.

Still, the goodish news is that the High Court has given him leave to appeal his extradition:

[In March] Dame Victoria Sharp [president of the King’s Bench] and Mr Justice Johnson ruled he would be able to bring an appeal against extradition on three grounds, unless “satisfactory” assurances were given by the US.

The assurances requested were that he would be permitted to rely on the first amendment of the US constitution, which protects freedom of speech; that he would not be “prejudiced at trial” due to his nationality; and that the death penalty would not be imposed.

The English court did not regard a US “assurance” that Assange would be permitted to “seek” the protections of the First Amendment as satisfactory. No kidding.

There were gasps of relief from his wife and supporters at the high court in London on Monday as judges granted him leave to challenge his extradition on the grounds of whether removal would be compatible with the right to freedom of expression under the European convention on human rights, regarded as having the functional equivalent of the US first amendment, and on the grounds that he might be prejudiced at his trial or punished by reason of his nationality.

That bit about “the functional equivalent of the US first amendment” gave me a mordant chuckle given that, as I enter my thirteenth year in the choked toilet of DC justice, it’s unclear that the First Amendment functions at all. Still, let’s pretend that it does:

The judges accepted that there was an arguable case that he could be discriminated against, after being told that an US prosecutor has said the first amendment may not apply to foreigners when it came to national security issues.

Oh, my, you do surprise me. If you think the dirty stinkin’ rotten corrupt Department of Justice intends to try any of this in open court, I’ve a souvenir set of Jeffrey Epstein’s E-Z-Knot bed sheets to sell you.” …….
