CNN消息，后续再翻译啦。。

MJ家族已接到州官方通知，如果上头放允，MJ可安葬于Neverland牧场。Neverland所属地区（Santa Barbara）官员星期四说到：一切还在进行中，尚不知家族决定。
加州某公务机构 Amanda Fulkerson说：“家族律师最近一直与州办公室交涉有关MJ能在其生活了近20年的牧场安葬的相关事宜。”如果将某人葬于私人场所在加州需要2道关卡的处理。首先，需要出示州公墓和葬礼的相关证明--当然这些在支付400美金和递交2页申请状后可以轻松的获得。而后，家族需要得到当地的允许。
县发言人William Boyer说到：“目前，MJ阵营并无一人向当地相关部门接洽”。县当地官方负责此类事务的Boyer继续到：“我们还未接到MJ家族或者有关负责人的正式申请，在接到申请后，我们会仔细复核相关程序然后做出决定。”Boyer说此前Barbara县还从未涉及过私人地带的安葬事务。加州曾在公墓以外的地方举行过类似葬礼，以安葬美国前总统罗兰德里根。
MJ的兄弟Jermaine说他非常希望见到弟弟安息于此，但是他们的父亲，Joe 却反对这个位置。家族其他成员并未就MJ的最终安葬地点表态过。
Michael Jackson于6月25日死于心脏停博，确切的死亡原因还要等待最终的药理学测试。
Jackson先生于1987年购买Neverland牧场并在其内设置了娱乐设施和一些动物，借由J.M. Barrie著作里的形象"Peter Pan"为牧场冠名。
亿万富翁Tom Barrack Jr.在去年外界风传的MJ财务风波中，为其减排负担而获得了牧场的控制权。在Jackson先生去世后，Barrack 说庄园的日后具体安排将在接下来的日子里考虑。

LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) -- The family of Michael Jackson has been told by state officials that it may be possible to bury the singer at Neverland Ranch -- if the county gives the green light.

Santa Barbara County says it hasn't yet been contacted about burying Michael Jackson at Neverland.

Officials with Santa Barbara County, the site of the ranch, said Thursday that they have not yet been approached, and it was not clear whether the family had decided to pursue that option.

A lawyer from the Jackson family contacted state officials recently about possibly burying Jackson at the ranch that was his home for almost two decades, said Amanda Fulkerson of California's State and Consumer Services Agency.

To bury someone on private land in California is a two-step process.

First, a certificate of authority is needed from the state Cemetery and Funeral Bureau -- easily obtainable by filling out a two-page application and paying $400. Next, the family needs approval from the county.

No one from the Jackson camp has contacted county authorities yet, said county spokesman William Boyer.

"We have had no formal application either from the Jackson family or from the property owner," said Boyer, the communications director for the county. "At that point, we would review the application and make a determination."

Boyer said Santa Barbara county has never been approached about burial on private land.

California has had burials outside cemeteries, most notably that of former U.S. President Ronald Reagan at his presidential library in Ventura County's Simi Valley.

Jackson's brother Jermaine said he'd like to see the singer buried at the ranch. But their father, Joe Jackson, said he opposes the site.

The rest of the family has expressed no preference about Jackson's final resting place. Michael Jackson died June 25 of a cardiac arrest. The exact cause of death is pending toxicology results.

Jackson purchased the Neverland Ranch -- named for the fictional world in J.M. Barrie's "Peter Pan" -- in 1987 and filled it with animals and amusement rides.

Billionaire Tom Barrack Jr. gained control of the ranch through his company last year as part of a process to alleviate the singer's debts, believed to be in the millions.

Soon after Jackson's death, Barrack said the property's future would be discussed at a later time.
