Wade Robson and James Safechuck, who accuse the late Michael Jackson of sexually abusing them as minors, have been assigned a new court trial date in 2028, according to multiple reports. The accusers, whose allegations gained wider public attention through the 2019 documentary “Leaving Neverland,” are pursuing legal action connected to Jackson’s business entities. They argue that Jackson’s companies and related arrangements helped enable and conceal the alleged abuse. Both outlets describe the case as involving claims that extend beyond Jackson himself to the organizations associated with him, rather than only focusing on the underlying allegations. The reports do not indicate a resolution of the merits of the claims, and the setting of a new date is presented as a procedural development. The trial timing is affected by the scheduling process, while the accusers continue to seek their day in court for their allegations. Jackson has previously denied wrongdoing, but the cited summaries focus on the new trial scheduling and the nature of the plaintiffs’ claims.
