First off, the yahoo story says she began her battle before he even died. Was he any more incapacaitated when she began her battle than the eight months before when they got married? If so, shouldnt that nullify her claim in the first place? And if not, shouldnt that be proof, on its face, that he did not intend for her to have the money if she was fighting when he was still able to step in? Why woldnt she get it in wrirint if he was still alive? Doesnt add up.
Is the douchbag son arguing Undue Influence or whatever that argument is when someone cant think straight bc they have tits the size of a skull smothering their face and they cant escape bc they are bound to either a bed or a wheelchair?
From a state probate level, how does she have a case? And how did this get kicked to a ninth circuit bankruptcy court? Totally different case? She claimed bankruptcy and somehow brought this old rich guy thing in to that case? What happened here exactly?

Did you read the Houston Press article about her during her marriage?
With passages like these, who wouldn't be rivited by their story?
Quote:
The old man's last topless dancer mistress had just died during a facelift, and he had discovered in her will another lover. Howard was suing her estate for every penny of all the millions he had given, when he was wheeled into another topless bar to meet another dancer.

Anyhow, the relevant passage is
Quote:
Anna, as she has said, entered a prolonged period of despair. She tried to fill the void in her life with food. She ate Twinkies and Ho-Hos and Dream Pies, and "everything," she told one magazine, "that wasn't trying to eat me." She overdosed a couple of times. She called Hollywood director Oliver Stone a "fucking asshole," waggled a naked breast at Bruce Willis and threw up at Dolly Parton's feet. Her weight went to well over 200 pounds, and from her Guess? contract, she went to Lane Bryant, and from there, she wound up making a lesbian porno movie. Anna consumed virtually everything she had, except a half-billion-dollar claim to Howard's estate. When she filed for bankruptcy, it became the business of the court to determine her wealth.
She arrived in the Los Angeles courtroom last month looking every bit the beautiful victim of grief. She was slimmer than she had recently been, and her breasts had been restrained behind a conservative blue suit. Hobbled by a back injury, she leaned on her lawyers and dabbed her eyes. Pierce's side seemed at a loss. They tried to portray the widow as a gold digger, but she either wept at their questions or professed not to understand. On several points, she was clear. No, she had not retrieved the old man's ashes; cremation was "really disgusting." Yes, she was faithful to Pawpaw. And though she couldn't remember which day she was married, she was sure it was one of the most important in her life.
"I believed when I married my husband that I was entitled to half of what he had," Anna Nicole testified.
There were charges that Pierce had altered documents to save the fortune. There was testimony that Howard was very happy with Anna and very angry with Pierce for his intrusion. The argument, in essence, was that a deal was a deal. He was rich and she was pretty, and their marriage was no different from many high-society marriages. The rich guy was a lot richer, and the trophy wife was more stacked, that's all. It is for the judge to decide now how much it is worth to be probed by 90-year-oldŠ appendages.
Anna Nicole put on her dark glasses and walked out of the courthouse, past the gathered reporters. Until the judge rules, lawyers wanted to keep her as quiet as possible and wouldn't let her discuss Sandi Powledge. Back in Winnsboro, though, Sandi can tell things are going to be okay for Anna. She used to hope that Anna would come back and get a job like hers -- "butt-wiper" in a nursing home -- and they could live together like a regular lesbian couple. As Sandi admits now, "that'll probably never happen."
