Celebrity Justice
Anna Nicole Paternity Test -- Deadline Set

Anna Nicole SmithThe judge in the Anna Nicole Smith baby dispute has ordered Smith to complete all DNA testing no later than Jan. 23.

Larry Birkhead, Smith's ex-boyfriend who claims to be Dannielynn's father, went to court last fall to ask a Los Angeles County Superior Court judge to order both Smith and her baby to undergo DNA testing.

Today Judge Robert Schnider set the Jan. 23 deadline. Under the terms of the order, Smith and Birkhead can each choose the lab of their choice. We're told Birkhead's lawyer, Debra Opri informed the judge that her lab -- based in the U.S. -- would send reps down to the Bahamas directly to Smith's front door. Opri tells TMZ "all she has to do is get out of bed, put on a Anna Nicole gallery: Click to launch photosrobe and answer the front door."

Smith maintains her lawyer, Howard K. Stern, is the father.

226. Lenn, that is why I said if I was reading it wrong I apologize. You aren't alone in thinking Daniel could have taken his own life - but after seeing so much of what has come out, quite honestly, it would have been physically impossible. He couldn't have been able to take the amount of drugs he had in his system without his body rejecting before he was 1/3 of the way through. He couldn't have done it consciously. Not several times the lethal limit. Maybe a couple, but not 7 or 8.

227. Latest from TMZ:

Anna Nicole Pimps Baby Pics for Cash?

Anna Nicole Smith has been trying to sell pictures of her baby daughter Dannielynn to the tabloid press, says MSNBC's The Scoop, mainly to help finance a new house in the Bahamas. "After she sold footage and photos of the birth to a TV show, she started seeing the child as a cash cow," says an insider. Smith is trying to maintain residency in the Bahamas, even though she has been ordered to vacate a house she rented there. Larry Birkhead, the man who says he's Dannielynn's daddy, is "outraged and "disgusted."

229. Would she sell the baby to the highest bidder? Does anyone know what is happening re. the inquest decision and the eviction?
I thought they were going to decide about the inquest by Friday. When I Google Search for current info., there doesn't seem to be anything new - that we don't already know. I wonder if the DNA test has been done yet or is she waiting until the last minute and planning an appeal? I wish the tabloids would just camp out there if they are so interested and maybe then we'd find out more about what is going on re. these THREE ISSUES (DNA, EVICTION, INQUEST)!!!

234. I think that Larry Birkhart needs to stand back and look at the big picture. ANS might still be here for her daughter if he hadn't pushed so hard. He should have given her time to mourn her son, before he started badgering her about parturnity. How do you feel now Larry??????

235. It appears to me that some of the people making these rude and nasty comments about Anna Nicole are much worse people than she ever thought about being. I think she was a love starved woman who became jaded with the Hollywood scene and fell prey to some of the perils therein. I think she became so enveloped in her own image and her wish to be rich and famous that she did not recognize real love or know how to acquire it or give it except in the case of her children and her pets. I feel very bad for her and I hope she finds peace. I think she is the classic example of "be careful what you wish for." I don't believe she was a bad person but rather a gullible and misguided person who found herself being criticized and ridiculed by people when all she wanted was to love and to be loved. She was a lost little girl. May she rest in peace.

236. Harvey Levin from this site may be an attorney but has no clue.....there is already DNA from Anna Nicole (these guys are trying to sensationalize this !) It is taken on every autopsy, blood, tissue samples etc......also the medical examiner from Broward County and Michael Baden (famous pathologist) both say the body can be buried because there is enough DNA...........Hollywood! Bury the poor lady.....court order not necessary!

237. OMG! You People are the epitomy of IGNORANT! Darlene, Are you jealous or what? How do you know she's a "whore"? Did you work the street with her or maybe you are just mad that she got a little attention and you are nothing .As for the rest of you that are calling her names...do you all not have anything better to do than to butt in on someone elses personal life? Just because she is a celeb doesnt make here life your business. MY GOD it's as if you all have nothing better to do. OH WAIT sorry MY BAD, You are all just a bunch of lewd, ignorant, and uneducated bunch of losers. So tell me who is really the white trash here? Hmmmmmmmm? I bet you all feel better now that ANS is dead. Too bad none of you will ever be close to worth what she is even now that she is gone. LOSERS!

238. wont you please all let this daughter. mother and best friend, sleep ? The only thing that matters now is her daughter. and that is the way that she would want tit. she is happy with her son and she knows that her daughter will be taken care of and loved. Everyone has their own thing going on in theor lives and she was really no different, it is ashame that she had drug and alcohol issues but we all have additions of some sort, she just get the help she needed whether she wanted it or not. I do feel that Howard truly did love her and will forever, that baby will have the best of both worlds if larry is the father, because i know howard would never let her down either, God bless you Anna and Daniel, may you rest in peace in the arms of the angels and in the heavenly arms of each other, .
