Anna Nicole Smith’s Will Filed for Probate

Anna Nicole Smith’s will (discussed previously on this blog) was filed for probate on Monday (May 15, 2007) by Howard K. Stern.

A dispute between Stern (the will’s executor) and Birkhead (Dannielynn’s father) will ensue over who should be the guardian of Dannielynn’s estate.

See Smith’s will left $710K to deceased son, Yahoo News!, May 15, 2007.

Of course, as discussed earlier, others may argue that Dannielynn is not entitled to any portion of Anna’s estate because of the “negative” aspect of her will which excluded all afterborn children.

Special thanks to Sara Hudman (May 2008 J.D. Candidate, Texas Tech University School of Law) for bringing this development to my attention.
