Elvis Presley Estate Sues Vegas Casino


The Elvis Presley estate has filed a lawsuit against a Las Vegas casino-hotel, as the King’s artifacts are being held as part of an ugly leasing dispute.

Elvis Presley Enterprises is trying to get back hundreds of items it loaned to the much-hyped “Graceland Presents Elvis” attraction at the Westgate Las Vegas Resort and Casino.


The off-Strip property took hold of the items in February when it shut down the attraction after the third-party operator, Exhibit A Circle, said it was quitting. The Westgate confirmed the lawsuit but declined to discuss the case.


Elvis Presley Enterprises didn’t immediately provide comment but had previously said that Westgate aggressively seized the valuables without a legitimate legal basis. The company runs the Graceland attraction in Memphis, Tennessee, and manages many of the official business deals.


Marian Cocke Out Of Hospital


Marian Coke, 90 years, and in the later seventies Elvis' private nurse, made a serious fall on Monday, and is fired in the East Baptist Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee. She has stitches in her head, a real shiner, some swelling in the skull, bruises and cuts all over her. The doctors have done an MRI today on her knee to see if it is factured, and Marian received positive news, because she is now at home.
