STORYLINE
The attorney who first interviewed Michael Jackson's accuser testified on Friday in the pop star's child molestation trial that he never was asked to file a lawsuit against the singer.
In the courthouse in Santa Maria, California, Larry Feldman acknowledged under cross-examination that the boy and his younger brother could file civil lawsuits against Jackson until they turn 20 years old.
The accuser is now 15.
Jackson's lawyer, Thomas Mesereau grilled Feldman about whether a conviction of Jackson on child molestation charges would make it easier for them to get a financial judgment against the pop star.
Feldman answered, "That's correct."
The two lawyers sparred over the exact requirements of a civil suit.
Feldman turned away accusations that he encouraged the criminal action to avoid incurring costs involved in preparing a civil lawsuit.
Feldman insisted there would still be litigation expenses.
District Attorney Tom Sneddon asked Feldman whether he was contemplating a lawsuit at the time that he referred the boy and his family to Santa Barbara County prosecutors.
Feldman told the prosecutor: "There was no lawsuit and there were no plans to file a lawsuit. It was up to you to investigate."
