Anna Nicole Slapped With Fraud Suit

Larry BirkheadOne of the men claiming to be the father of Anna Nicole Smith's newborn daughter is mounting a legal attack in the Bahamas.

In a statement made outside the Los Angeles County Courthouse today, Larry Birkhead's attorney, Debra Opri, said that Birkhead has filed a claim, alleging fraud and conspiracy against Anna Nicole, her lawyer-lover, Howard K. Stern, and the Registrar who certified the baby girl's birth certificate.

In court documents filed today, Birkhead alleges that Stern, with Smith's permission, fraudulently represented that he was the father by signing the birth certificate. Opri says Anna and Howard have 14 days to respond to her client's claim.

This newest development opens the door to force a paternity test in the Bahamas. Birkhead has already filed legal papers in Los Angeles asking a judge to force the issue.

16. If people dislike what is being said so much, why do they continue to read the comments? Do you think by saying that we should all lay off her we will collectively say, "Aww, you're right. We shouldn't talk bad about her"? I understand that some people feel bad for her, but most of us can't. She did this to herself.

17. I said it last night on another ANS thread.......... and today I read it in STAR mag. . Her half sister is saying in her tell all book that ANS does not know who the father is and that it is likely she will come out and say it is J.Howard Marshall. That she used frozen sperm to have his child now. I would not put it past her. Sounds just kookie enough. This story just keeps getting more bizarre by the day. She needs to just come home and submit Dannilyn for the drug/paternity test and get it all over with. The longer she drags it out the crazier they both look.

18. ANS may of well given her son something that resulted in his death..however I do not believe ANY mother would do so on purpose OR not feel sorrow, grief and guilt over losing a child...no matter what the circumstances. ANS is and has been ill and active in her addiction for a while. If, and that is a big if, she did give Daniel something that killed him I do not believe it was intentional at all. I hope she seeks help as she has needed treatment for a long time from what I have observed. Best wishes to her and hopefully her recovery.

19. AMEN # 17. She did indeed do it all to herself!

What I can not understand is how HKS will stand by her through everything knowing that she is out "doing" other men. What does he stand guard at the bedroom door? He said on LarryKing that they had been in a relationship for a while..... to me awhile means more than 3or4 months. So, they were an item when she was dating Birkhead and the real estate guy from South Carolina. HKS is just s mooch who is in love with his only client and will do whatever to make her happy. Even if it makes him look like a total and utter FOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Foolish man, she does NOT love you..

20. When will this DRAMAFLAGAMA ever end?@*^#(*!^(*&^??

Anna get the damn paternity test done already!(*&)@^!(*^&!!!! What an efing freakshow she is. I felt for her son dying but the rest of this crap she's pulled the past month and a half is just so up her media-efing-notice-me whore drama. If the Bahamas don't want her sorry big ass I hope that she and that sorry excuse of a "COMPANION" lawyer escape to Iraq. Aside from feeling sorry for the loss of her firstborn I feel nothing but pity for that little baby girl and what a life she will no doubt have to endure as that excuse of a trainwreck mother she has. I really hope that Larry gets custody of her when this all is out in the open.

Time's up for these two. It's all down hill from here. ANS, you have lost everything, it's over! All in the name of drugs and greed....What a shock....Dah!!
This story is more powerful and effective, than the anti-drug commercial...fried egg...this is your brain on drugs...............ANS face should be in the frying pan!
If this doesn't make a person think twice about drug use, I don't know what will.

22. Well it looks like Anna is going to get what she deserves. No home, deported hopefully,we will finally find out who the father is. REality Check it took her a month to bury her son. She had to get residancy, and now thats phony just like her tits. She is going to get everything she deserves.

23. I hope the Bahamas throws her out on her crazy drugged up @ss! I can't see how she thinks she will get away with this. Obviously she has to realize when her daughter gets older she will realized her crazy mother purposly keep her away from her real father. How does she think her daughter will think of that? Can you imagine the utter embarassment when her daughter can understand what a circus her mother made of her birth?? I feel really sorry for her.

24. Okay....let me start with 1. Have any of you LOST a SON in your very own BED 2 days after you give birth to a babygirl? (I'm going to say NOPE) 2. Why should she give into what the Birkhead and Media are saying...........also remember Marshall Smith and son are dead now. So EVERYONE around her is looking to CASH in, her mother and step-sister give me a brake. No GIVE HER BRAKE, no one is prefect and she needs love and understanding and support. So everyone back off. Let her breath. Remember your NOT the JUDGE he's up stairs......And for TrimSpa thanks for being there for her.

25. Note to Larry: I hope you are not going after the baby to spite Anna or Howard. This paper needs a good role model, not someone who is out to be spiteful. If in fact you really want this child and will raise it better than Anna raised Daniel, then I hope you get custody of the Baby. If you are out for revenge, I hope the baby goes to a total stranger and this way neither of you can screw up this baby.

Anna & Howard, face the music, one or both of you are going to Jail. One or both of you had a hand in the death of Daniel.

The only comfort I have over Daniel's death is that he is in such a better place. He will finally be at peace with someone who truly loves him, his Maker.

I feel for her!!

29. Kim you are crazy! This crazy dumb @ass hoe was out parting on a yaht having a wedding only days after her son died. Doesn't seem she was that broken up to me. Also .. she could even care less if her son had a proper funeral .. she left him in the mourge for what a month??? Who the hell does that??? Find me a parent that has a child die and then doesn't even have time to have a funeral for a month .. because they are to busy making wedding plans. That is absolutly ridiculous!!!

If she had an ounce of respect for her son she would have contacted Larry Birkhead privately .. keeped quite in the media about the father .. told Larry they would work this out after the funeral and bury her son in CA where she is from and where he lived like any NORMAL parent!!

Now the stupid B1TCH is goign to get thrown out of the Bahamas .. what ? is she going to dig her son up and take him with her??? Everyone knows she is a complete drug addict .. at least most drug addicts TRY and hind it in public .. not her ..she is completly WASTED on TV all the time. And her son died of a drug overdose .. coincience???? NO
