LAS VEGAS (AP) - A Nevada judge is viewing warrant documents in the Michael Jackson investigation behind closed doors with a Los Angeles police detective and prosecutor before deciding whether to unseal them.

Clark County District Court Judge Valerie Adair said Tuesday she'll decide after seeing them whether to release affidavits relating to searches of a Las Vegas pharmacy and of Michael Jackson's personal physician's home, office and storage unit.

Lawyers for The Associated Press and other media want documents relating to any searches in the case in Nevada made public.

Dr. Conrad Murray's properties in Las Vegas were searched July 28, and a pharmacy where authorities say he legally bought the powerful sedative propofol was searched Aug. 11.

Police investigating the pop singer's death oppose releasing any new documents.
