Anna may just get her hands on that fortune!

This may not seem like something I'd say but dammit Anna should get her cash. As a lawyer, there is never a situation where a spouse gets 0. This tycoon was after Anna to marry him for years - she wouldn't marry him until she was the Guess girl. Then they get married and the son wants to cut her out completely.

Isn't it his father's decision who he wants to have his cash? And I really believe that Anna loved him - he was the father figure she never had. Sure, she may have had sex with other men but he was in a fucking wheel chair. Just because you have needs doesn't mean you don't love your spouse. How many men would do the same thing without any criticism?

Can you imagine a situation where a man wouldn't step outside his relationship if his wife was in a wheelchair pissing in a bag? If he didn't, you'd think that he was gay. Here's the whole article:

The US Supreme Court has cleared the way for ex-Playboy model Anna Nicole Smith to stake her claim to millions of dollars in her late husband's will. Ms Smith married Texan oil baron J Howard Marshall II in 1995 when she was 26 and he was 89. He died a year later, leaving an $1.6bn (£900m) estate.

Ms Smith has been fighting his son for a share of the estate ever since.

Justices overturned a lower court's ruling on jurisdiction that effectively meant Ms Smith was entitled to nothing.

The case hinged on the technical issue of the conditions under which federal courts may hear claims that involve state probate proceedings.

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said in the Supreme Court's ruling that Ms Smith should have another opportunity to pursue her claims in federal court.

Swarm of photographers

Few events at the sober Supreme Court have caused as much of a stir as Ms Smith's arrival for a hearing in late February.

Those who queued for hours saw a demure-looking Ms Smith, dressed in black and wearing sunglasses, arrive swarmed by photographers.

She later left through a side door and sped away in a black car.

The latest ruling means the legal battle between Ms Smith and Mr Marshall's son, E Pierce Marshall, will not end any time soon.

Ms Smith claimed that her husband promised her half of his estate. The son said the more than $6m (£3.26m) in gifts she received in 1994 was all his father wanted her to get.

In Texas, a state probate court ruled that E Pierce Marshall was entitled to his father's estate.

But in California, a federal bankruptcy judge ruled for Ms Smith and awarded her $474m (£258m).

A federal district court judge then cut her award to $88m (£48m).

The appeals court subsequently ruled she was entitled to nothing because federal courts lack jurisdiction in probate disputes.

This ruling has now been overturned.

If the guy was that old and that rich there is no fucking way he didnt leave behind a will. So there shouldn't really be any debate over it.

As far as I'm concerned, she should be getting only a tiny fraction of his estate, if anything. The father figure she never had... yeah right. You mean someone to shower her with money and gifts, and who she never has to suck or fuck or anything else because he's too old and decrepit to get it hard anyways. She was hoping to ride the gravy train (and the pool boy... and the gardener... and the chauffeur) for a few years until the old coot croaked, and then she could claim his fortune for herself. Do I expect a 26 year old woman to remain celibate because she married an 89 year old man who can't get it up? No, of course not. But I won't try to delude myself into thinking that it was for anything but his bankbook either.

Uh huh. Really now. $6 million in gifts in 1994 alone is what you call getting fucked? (And that was before they got married, on top of which, they were only married for a year before he bit it.) Well then by all means, fuck me any time you want.

Yeah it's a mutual using. He wanted companionship, to feel young again, and of course a porno model trophy wife doesnt hurt. But how that entitles her to half of his $1.6 BILLION, I'll never figure out.

I really do find it amazing how women can honestly believe that marrying a filthy rich man 3 or 4 times your age who is practically on his deathbed and playing house for a year or two before he croaks entitles them to half, or even all of his shit.
