Michael Jackson's body will be moved by motorcade to his sprawling Neverland Ranch in Santa Barbara County on Thursday for a sort of lying-in-state period where friends, family and fans can pay their respects until funeral plans are finalized, CNN reported Tuesday.

Also on Tuesday, a seven-year-old draft of Jackson's will surfaced for the first time, and reportedly leaves his estate to his mother, his three young children and some charities. On Monday, Jackson's parents, Katherine and Joe Jackson, filed court papers seeking control of his estate, declaring that they believe the pop star did not leave a valid will when he died suddenly last week in Los Angeles.
