Elvis Presley’s granddaughter, Danielle Riley Keough, is fighting to keep the king of rock ‘n’ roll’s Graceland estate from being auctioned off on claims that a loan using the home as collateral was not repaid.

On May 20, a Memphis judge granted Ms. Keough’s request for a temporary restraining order to block the public sale of the historic 13-acre estate, which was scheduled for May 23, according to court documents.
