Graceland is not for sale, Elvis Presley’s granddaughter Riley Keough says in lawsuit
SUMMARY: Actor Riley Keough, granddaughter of Elvis Presley, is contesting a planned foreclosure auction of the Graceland estate in Memphis. A Memphis judge has temporarily halted the sale after Keough obtained a restraining order and filed a lawsuit. The estate is claimed to owe $3.8 million from a 2018 loan, which Keough argues her mother, Lisa Marie Presley, never took out. The lawsuit alleges fraudulent documents were presented by Naussany Investments. A hearing is scheduled, and Elvis Presley Enterprises supports Keough, asserting the claims are false. Graceland, a significant tourist attraction since 1982, remains under dispute.
