An online casino featuring unauthorized images of the late pop icon Michael Jackson has been taken off the Web.  It was not immediately clear as to whether the site operators volunteered to remove the website or whether hosting service GoDaddy.com yanked MichaelJacksonCasino.com. 

As Gambling911.com reported yesterday, GoDaddy.com is being sued for its allowing a company to register the MichaelJackson.com online casino. 

Howard Mann is asking for $100 million in damages. 

"While we have not seen the lawsuit, if we are named, Go Daddy plans to vigorously defend itself." A rep from that company stated on Tuesday.  "When customers are involved in a legal dispute, Go Daddy complies with court orders."
