LOS ANGELES, Aug. 20 (UPI) -- An Orange Country District Court has blocked Anna Nicole Smith's estate's final attempt at getting millions of dollars from her ex-husband's son E. Pierce Marshall's estate.
In court documents released Tuesday, U.S. District Judge David O. Carter denied Smith's daughter Dannielynn Birkhead's lawyer's attempt to win $44 million in sanctions from the Marshall family and dismissed as moot the request to dismiss the case.
