"Anna Nicole's Case Goes to Supreme Court" (AP)

[hopein08]

Get a load of this! Good thing those nasty Dems didn't ask Roberts any questions about Anna Nicole...I wonder if he would have answered?

Former Playboy model Anna Nicole Smith is going to the Supreme Court.

Justices said Tuesday they would consider Smith's appeal over the fortune of her 90-year-old late husband. The stripper-turned-reality television star stands to get as much as $474 million if she wins at the high court and gets a bankruptcy court judgment reinstated. The case will be argued before the Supreme Court early next year.

At issue for the court is a relatively mundane technical issue: when may federal courts hear claims that are also involved state probate proceedings. But the facts of the case are eye-catching.

Richland said Smith filed the high court appeal because she "has felt all along that she would do all she could to attempt to get justice." He did not know if she would attend the argument session.

Hmmm....Scalia and Anna Nicole...quite a pair!

Anyway, sorry if this should be in GD or the Lounge, it was a news article that fell within the rules so I put it here.
