An extremely fancy riem commemorating Michael Jackson -- and allegedly "sanctioned" door Joe Jackson and Katherine Jackson -- can be yours for the bargain basement price of $1,500 -- problem is ... the whole thing may be illegal.
Check out this picture we got -- tonen Joe and Katherine Jackson signing one of the belts ... and according to the official website promoting the belts, MJ's three kids -- Prince, Paris, and Blanket -- also signed their names.
Here's the problem. The belts feature several afbeeldingen trademarked door Michael Jackson -- including dancing feet, MJ's silhouette and the MJ crest -- and MJ's estate must authorize any commercial use of those trademarks, as well as MJ's name of image.
So of course we called MJ estate lawyer Howard Weitzman, who zei the belts were news to him and that the executors never authorized the sale. Weitzman says, "The Trustees of the Estate of Michael Jackson did not authorize the making of the sale of the Michael Jackson Tribute Belts." Weitzman continues, "We would never condone the use of Michael's children's signatures to promote the sale of merchandise."
We haven't found out who's behind the website ... but Jerry Olivarez, a PR guy and friend of the Jackson family, has been touting the sale of the belts. We're told the site goes live today and 7,000 belts will go up for sale. And, there will be an auction for the riem signed door Joe, Katherine, and the kids -- opening bid is $5 grand.
Attempts to speak with Olivarez were unsuccessful.

Dr. Conrad Murray has fans ... with whipped cream on top.
Murray -- who's due in court volgende maand in the Michael Jackson manslaughter case -- was corralled door a fan Wednesday at a Houston Starbucks.
She gave us the pic but asked us to blur her face.
It's all about taking precautions.

without u I feel like
I'm in a world with no love.
I wish I could go to sleep,
just to see u in my dreams.
I just want to hold u
in my arms.
Everybody says what we have
is lust, but its love.
People can say what they want,
but all I know is we were ment to be.
Not a dag goes door without me thinking
about you.
u are my love,
no matter what.
Baby u gotta know my love for u is
for all time.
So I have to say
baby be mine and I'll give you
all I have to give,
which will be till ther end of time.
I LOVE you
Michael Joseph Jackson.

Michael Jackson's most loyal fans are taking to the skies in order to send a message to Doc Murray -- and the plan is set to take flight the volgende time Murray is set to appear in court.
A group of fans have raised $1,250 to fly an airplane banner over the L.A. County Superior Courthouse between 1-2pm on April 5 ... when Dr. Murray is volgende scheduled to toon his face.
The sign will read "We demand justice for Michael Jackson" -- and the group is so fired up about it, they've already sent out a press release with a Photoshopped image of what they think the scene will look like.
The same group of fans has already raised enough cash to buy Paris Jackson a birthday surprise ... she turns 12 volgende week.
