Judge in Tennessee blocks effort to put Elvis Presley's former home Graceland up for sale, The AP reported.

Earlier, actress and model Riley Keough - Elvis's granddaughter - has reportedly been able to get a temporary restraining order against any sale before a court rules on her application for an injunction.

The former home and burial site of Elvis Presley is set to be sold at a foreclosure auction on Thursday - but his granddaughter is attempting to halt the court-approved sale of Graceland, according to Sky News.

The case stems from a 2018 deed of trust Keough's late mother - Elvis's only child - allegedly signed, securing a $3.8m loan from Naussany Investments and Private Lending LLC in Missouri.

The company says Graceland was used as collateral in the loan, which was never paid back.

But in new court filings, Keough is fighting the sale of the Memphis, Tennessee, compound - claiming her mother never signed over anything and never borrowed any money.
