A judge on Thursday delayed a guardianship hearing for Michael Jackson's children at the request of attorneys for the singer's mother and his ex-wife, Deborah Rowe.
The legal documents filed on behalf of Rowe and Katherine Jackson were not accompanied by any petition for custody by Rowe.
The hearing had been scheduled for Monday. Records show attorneys for both sides asked for the hearing to be delayed until July 13.
Another hearing scheduled for Monday on who will take temporary control of Jackson's estate will proceed.
A television station in Los Angeles reported earlier that Rowe intends to seek custody of Jackson's two oldest children and will seek a restraining order to keep Jackson's father Joe away from the children.
Calls by The Associated Press to Rowe's attorney Marta Almli were not immediately returned.
Rowe is the mother of Jackson's two oldest children, son Michael Joseph Jr., known as Prince Michael, 12; daughter Paris Michael Katherine, 11.
The mother of the singer's youngest child, son Prince Michael II, 7, has never been revealed.
Katherine Jackson currently has temporary guardianship of the children.
