A Tennessee judge has blocked the auction of Graceland, the former home of Elvis Presley, by a company that claimed his estate failed to repay a loan which used the property as collateral.
Shelby County Chancellor JoeDae Jenkins issued a temporary injunction against the proposed auction that had been scheduled for Thursday this week.

Presley’s granddaughter Riley Keough had filed a lawsuit.
A public notice for a foreclosure sale of the 13-acre estate in Memphis posted earlier in May said Promenade Trust, which controls the Graceland museum, owes 3.8 million dollars (£3 million) after failing to repay a 2018 loan.
Keough, an actor, inherited the trust and ownership of the home after the death of her mother, Lisa Marie Presley, last year.
