Anna Nicole's Daughter Is No Million-Dollar Baby

As many in the media await the results of a DNA test to determine the real father of Anna Nicole Smith's infant daughter, Dannielynn, some reports have perpetuated a legal myth. Consider the Associated Press story that pronounced that "Anna Nicole Smith's 6-month-old daughter . . . could inherit millions after the former reality TV star's death last month."

This is only partially right. Dannielynn has indeed had a DNA test. But there is little chance that this child will inherit millions.

Why? Because Anna Nicole Smith's legal claims on J. Howard Marshall's estate were always tenuous. And once the courts act, they will likely extinguish the claim altogether. That means Dannielynn is more likely to be saddled with legal bills and other debt from litigation associated with her mother's estate than she's likely to inherit any portion of Marshall's estate.

I bet all claims on her will soon be dropped.

We had all that press coverage for a POOR kid?!

Well, I guess if we can have press coverage for Kato Katlin, we can have it for anybody.
