Lloyd's of Londra has gone to court ... asking a judge to let the company off the financial hook, claiming it doesn't owe the Michael Jackson Estate $17.5 million on grounds MJ was a fraud.
The company issued the muilti-million dollar policy to cover the doomed "This Is It" tour for losses.
But Lloyd's claims it doesn't have to honor the policy for 2 primary reasons:
1. Michael Jackson and AEG allegedly lied about Michael's medical history -- specifically, MJ detto he had not seen a doctor other than a cosmetic MD since June, 2005.
2. Michael did not disclose he was taking prescription drugs prior to and at the time of his death -- including Propofol.
Lloyd's is asking the court for a declaration that the policy is null and void as a result of the alleged fraud.
Howard Weitzman, the lawyer for the Estate, tells TMZ, "This legal action is nothing più than an insurance company trying to avoid paying a legitimate claim da the insured."

Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by...
If te smile
With your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If te just...
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time te must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If te just...
Smile, though your cuore is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by...
If te smile
Through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If te just smile...
That's the time te must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If te just smile
So we had our school retreat today, & there was a band right? They started playing will te be there, & my Friends were all nudging me going "it's MJ!" The thing is, I didn't know it was MJ when they first started playing. I had never heard will te be there before, yet all my Friends knew it. Isn't that kinda sad? My friend Emily was like "Keri, it's MJ get up & sing!" but I was like "I don't know the words." I learned it pretty fast though; they only played the first 2 lines over & over instead of the whole song, so I didn't feel like a total idiot!! So it was kinda embarrassing for me because my Friends all know me as the big MJ fanatic, yet I didn't recognize the song. But it really made my day!
