Larry Birkhead's lawyer tells TMZ there will be no negotiating with Howard K. Stern.
Debra Opri says the only subject of negotiation is "how fast he [Stern] will produce the child for a DNA test and how quickly he will allow that child to go to California with her real father."
As TMZ has been reporting, Stern has been asking Birkhead for some involvement in Dannielynn's financial affairs after paternity is established. Now Opri says, "There were never any deals. It was a one-sided discussion."
Opri tells TMZ she did not want to respond to Stern's overtures until after the funeral. Birkhead's hardline stance now puts the ball in Stern's court -- will he submit Dannielynn for DNA testing or will the fight escalate?

Jusme , Anna is deceased so no Larry is not in breach of his contract. I'm quite sure Howard signed something similar,a nd we all know he loves speaking to the media.
"Mo -
Help me out with this one. What was Anna doing in
2001?"
Christina,
I think it is a joke story.
I mean, c'mon, isn't there enough craziness with this
already?
I can see, however, that it is already spreading around like
wildfire.
What was it yesterday? Oh yeah, HKS had been married with
two kids. ROFL!
I just saw over at the Mo Talking message board
someone making the 7 insurance policies statement of 'fact'.
I don't even feel like bothering with it anymore.
Mo -
LMAO. Me either.
Have you seen the new "timeline" story? I'm starting to feel sick at my stomach.
Christina,
No, it's probably there, but alot of things I just ignore, like I explained in a post last night.
What is the timeline story?
The indian guy would probably submit his child for DNA to match against that of Anna Nicole's....I would be interested to see if the boy is indeed her child and if he is you can bet Howard knows all about him...Which would make that "clause" in her will where she excludes any future heirs, husbands, etc. seem more plausible and would certainly explain why it was put in the will in the first place....
Someone should try to help this guy and see if he has a legitimate case....He claims to have all the bank receipts for the deposits Anna Nicole made in his account and the actual birth certificate whereby she lists herself as the mother and him as the father....I say he should produce a copy...
TMZ = GO AFTER THIS STORY AND SEE HOW IT PLAYS OUT!!!
Christina,
I see what you are talking about now, I'll let you know what I think in a minute.
Christina - 99% of the time, I don't read what you post, but for some reason, I read your last post and the link (
http://www.phoenixnewtimes.com/2007-03-08/news/tohono-o-odham-with-love ) and, well you just shot your Howard is a nice guy in the foot (with an arrow maybe???). If (big IF) this story is true, then Howard knew about that child and geeeeeez, maybe that explains why all other children were written outta that will.
Anyone else read that - thoughts????
Christina,
Okay, I read it. I have no thoughts on it really. I suppose we will find out when an actual report comes out about what people told the police.
The only problem is that if people feel they could have/ should have done something differently or if there is something that may appear to make someone look guilty, I suppose there could have been a 'meeting of the minds' so that everys story checks out.
In the end, I don't think we will ever know the whole truth.
Honestly, does it really matter? I really don't think anyone murdered anyone else. I think things people did may have contributed to ANS's or Daniels death, but I don't think they are intentional and shouldn't be legally punished.
I have a feeling that, no matter what, ANS was destined to die early and maybe even Daniel, considering the life ANS lived and Daniel being such a big part of her life.
My concern now is Dannielynn. I think all this other stuff is irrelevant in the big picture.
ANS's lifestyle caused this all to happen, even though some aspects of it were probably illegal.
The only person that can still be helped now is Dannielynn.
RACHEL #2588 - You are ***BRILLIANT***
You forgot to mention the convicts wil also be getting free shoes and perhaps "love!"
Three hots and a cot - All at the Bahamians expense.
Mo -
I agree completely.
I'm definitely going to need you to help me stay on track with this one though. I already have all these conspiracy theories running around in my head. LOL.
About the Indian guy & his son, I'm feeling sick about that one too because he says he has bank statements, phone records, birth records and so forth to back up his claim. Could Anna really have had another child we didn't even know about?
If true, it seems he didn't want Anna to be a part of his childs life while she was alive, but he definitely wants him to have his share of her money now that she's dead. It all seems very sad to me.
Jill, you are an idiot.
I do NOT support Howard K. Stern, not because he's Jewish, so is my godmother, nor because the Bahamaian people who are the caregivers of Dannielynn are black... Why cause SO AM I....
Come up with another excuse ;-( GRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Here at the facts as I see them (whether they are right or wrong)
Howard advised Anna Nicole not to submit Dannielynn to DNA TESTING both before Anna died and after.
It's obvious Howard believes he isn't Dannielynn's biological father or he would have submitted to DNA testing a long time ago
If nothing else Howard was an enabler to Anna's drug dependency. Proof being his subscriptions of methadone prescribed to him.
Howard avoids any question posed to him regarding him being the BIOLOGICAL father of Dannielynn
Howard has never publicly denied Larry Birkhead assertions that he was in a relationship with Anna Nicole, has not denied that Anna told Larry he was the father, didn't deny Anna & Larry started a baby book together, etc.
Howard secluded Anna to further his influence, professional and personal.
Howard leeched off of Anna Nicole financially for all of his support.
Howard paid off Bahamian governement officials and/or prostituted Anna to them for special priveledges.
Howards sister, seems to be lying about the closeness of the Stern and Smith families, due to the fact the Stern enclave had never seen/visited with Dannielynn until AFTER Anna Nicole died.
Howard showed lack of class by disrepsecting the church, Virgie Arthur and any and all mourners by attacking any and all who didn't agree with the way he was handling Anna's affairs and whomeevr made accustations against him. The funeral was NOT the time or place to do so.
Howard has tried making back door deals with Larry Birkhead and Ford Shelley in exchange for Dannielynn (Ron Rale stated as much) Howard asked for Shelley to stop the court proceedings regarding the house he is squatting in , in the Bahamas, and asked to be executor of Anna/Dannielynn's estate.
Howard does not own property in the Bahamas
Howard is not a citizen of the bahamas
Howard is living illegally in a house he does not own.
My feelings for Howard have nothing to do with my like or dislike of Larry Birkhead
I want Larry to be given the right to find out if he is the biological father of Dannielynn. No matter the outcome.
wanna know -
I completely agree that if this story is true, Anna's will makes a lot more sense. However, Howard didn't draft Anna's will. Another attorney did.
I'm looking at the picture of the birth certificate. It has Anna Nicole Smith, not Vicky Lynn Marshall.
Would that make a difference?
Christina,
I know Howard didn't "write" the will - but you can bet your bottom dollar he helped craft what it would say. Proof is that his RAR RON RALE was the first one to know just where to get it - so Howard knew of it, and what it said, and why it said what it did.
Would explain so much of that will. It struck me odd at the time, that it was written as if by a man, excluding omitting all heirs (children) known or unknown. Also, it refers to Smith's "children" - hummmmm makes that word relevant too! Oh, and that if you contest this you are excluded clause 6.1 Contestants disinherited.
TMZ - FIND OUT PLEASE!!!!!!!!!
Odd that the will was the same year as "marshall- the child" (9-26-01 on the birth certificate, if my eyes are right) , eh???
