NO NEVERLAND BURIAL FOR MICHAEL JACKSON: Family unable to obtain required residential exemption for private property.
Also: Will Michael's public funeral be at Staples Center?
"Contrary to previous news reports, the Jackson family is officially stating that there will be no public or private viewing at Neverland," says a Jackson family statement. "Plans are underway regarding a public memorial for Michael Jackson, and we will announce those plans shortly."
Colony Capital, the investment company that purchased Neverland in May 2008, tried to get an exemption for burial. "They couldn't get it in time," a Colony spokesperson says.
There were also reports Wednesday that Jackson's body is being held at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Hollywood Hills. William Martin, communications director for the funeral home, won't confirm or deny if Jackson will be buried there.

*TMZ, debunking a report by the Hollywood Reporter's Roger Friedman that Michael's funeral will be at Staples Center in downtown LA, is reporting this:
-- it won't be until next week
-- it will not be at Neverland
-- it will be in the L.A. area, and the Staples Center is an option but it hasn't been decided.
Beyond that -- the family still hasn't made its decision, the site boldly states.
