MJ Memorabilia Company -- Majorly T'd Off
Michael Jackson's likeness is at the center of a serious turf war -- and now an official MJ merchandising company is trying to squash a website for getting all up in their t-shirt bidness.
Bravado International -- which was empowered by the MJ estate to be the exclusive merchandising company of MJ memorabilia -- filed papers in L.A. federal court yesterday, claiming Emoda.com has been selling MJ t-shirts without permission.
Now Bravado is on the rampage and wants to clean out their tiny competition -- demanding three times the site's profits from the t-shirts, plus hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages.

Tiger Woods Not the Daddy!
TMZ has learned ... a DNA test disproves the claim of Devon James -- that Tiger Woods fathered her 9-year-old son.
A source handling the situation tells TMZ the DNA test was performed in 2002, as part of "an ongoing child support battle."
We're told although the DNA test excludes Tiger, it establishes to a reasonable certainty who fathered the boy -- a guy from Florida.
The boy's pics were posted on Kikster.com. Coincidentally, he does look an awful lot like Tiger.

Charlie Sheen Not The Only Car Theft Victim
TMZ has learned ... Charlie Sheen's car was not the only vehicle stolen early Tuesday and taken to Mulholland Drive.
We've learned another car was stolen from The Summit -- a nearby gated community where Britney Spears used to live.
We're told the vehicle from The Summit was not pushed over the cliff, but it was left at a lookout point near where Charlie's car was dumped.
Remember, 4 months ago, when Charlie's first car was stolen and dumped over Mulholland, other cars were vandalized and a Bentley was pushed over a nearby cliff.
We're told so far cops don't know if the two thefts are connected.
So much for gated communities ...

Lamar Odom's In-Law Claims NBA Finals Are Rigged
His brother-in-law plays for the Lakers -- but Robert Kardashian is still convinced that the NBA playoffs are totally "rigged."
Kardashian -- whose sister is married to Lamar Odom -- was out before the big Game 6 match-up yesterday and told us, "The NBA is so rigged, are you kidding me ... it was gonna go to [Game] 7 from like the beginning of the year ... it's all about money."
Ultimately, he was right -- the Lake Show beat the Boston Celtics and forced a Game 7.
For now, Rob can't really prove his theory ... but with at least one former NBA ref recently confessing to all sorts of cheating ... Robert could be on to something.

Charlie Sheen Car Theft -- Inside Job?
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... Charlie Sheen has given LAPD detectives information that raises the possibility that someone had been casing the joint when his second car in 4 months was stolen and dumped over a cliff.
As TMZ first reported -- when the first incident occurred in February -- Charlie had left his car in his driveway with the keys in the ignition. Thieves made off with the car and rolled it off a cliff on Mulholland Drive.
We're told Charlie made a habit of taking the keys out of the ignition since the February incident ... with only 2 exceptions -- the last being Monday at around 4 PM.
Sources say there's a feeling someone might have been casing Charlie's house, waiting for another opportunity to strike. Since it's a gated community, one of the avenues being explored is that a worker on the grounds could be involved.
And law enforcement sources say ... Charlie has told cops he can't think of anyone he knows who had a grudge that would manifest itself this way.

So, AEG president Tim Leiweke -- whose suite they happened to be sitting in -- ran down to the Lakers team shop in the Staples Center and had an Obama jersey made up on the spot.
To top things off, Phil Jackson even autographed the gear for the kids after the game.
Way cooler than that ugly tie you were gonna get your dad.

Charlie Sheen/Brooke Mueller Divorce Documents
Charlie Sheen and Brooke Mueller signed a 43-page agreement -- obtained by TMZ -- that lays out who gets what in the event they divorce ... and Brooke has made it clear ... she's not going to get less than Denise Richards.
According to the docs, signed by both Charlie and Brooke, they will get joint legal custody of their two kids. Brooke gets primary physical custody and Charlie becomes a weekend dad, getting the kids on the first, third and fifth weekends of the month from Saturday at 10 AM until Monday at 10 AM.
Brooke gets $55,000 a month in child support, plus various other expenses, but, according to the docs, "under no circumstances shall the child support paid by Charlie for Bob and Max be less than the child support paid by Charlie to Denise Richards for Sam and Lola."
TMZ broke the story ... Denise gets $50,000 a month in child support ... although the new document suggests Denise may be getting $55k a month.
Brooke waives spousal support but still cashes in. In addition to getting a 50% cut on the baby photos the couple sold to Getty Images, Brooke gets several bank accounts and a lump sum parting gift of $757,689.70.
Charlie gets the house but has to buy Brooke out to the tune of around $1 million.
Charlie also gets to keep his $5.6 mil watch collection.
At the end of the document, Brooke agrees "not to disclose to any media sources personal information relating to Charlie's sexual affairs or alleged drug usage." For his part, Charlie agrees not to talk about Brooke's alleged drug use.
And they're not allowed to talk crap about each other in front of the kids.
TMZ also obtained divorce documents that were signed by Charlie but not filed with the court ... at least not yet. The documents cite "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for divorce.
We're told no decision has been made on whether to pull the trigger on the divorce.
