Lloyd's of Лондон 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 сказал(-а) 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 еще than an insurance company trying to avoid paying a legitimate claim by the insured."

Michael my heart,
last night I dream of you,
Ты were embracing me from my back.
I heard your heartbeat and it beats so fast,
like our promise that our Любовь will never end.
We had so much fun together,
that I wished to go on forever.
Talks and laugh ,kissing and cuddling,
like no other people existing.
Holding each others hands while we walked,
all your attention was just for us.
I can't think of anything when Ты talked,
but I Любовь Ты еще and more, Ты see.
We stopped walking and Ты looked at me sweetly,
then Ты leaned over and kissed me.
My сердце popped out and I saw butterflies,
Ты сказал(-а) Ты Любовь me truly. oh sorry and then, I awake up and my dream was to end.
It was still a memory to reminisce, your Kiss was so tender and sweet.
Любовь and miss Ты !! ♥

Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by...
If Ты smile
With your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If Ты just...
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time Ты must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If Ты just...
Smile, though your сердце is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by...
If Ты smile
Through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If Ты just smile...
That's the time Ты must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If Ты just smile
