Supreme Court is keeping busy
I'm so happy to hear that the Supreme Court is finding ways to keep themselves busy. Apparently, the have granted cert in Anna Nicole Smith's estate case.
To boil the case down to the basics, Anna Nicole was a total gold-digger, marrying some 79-year-old multi-millionaire who was about to kick the bucket. The multi-millionaire's son, who of course wants all daddy's money for himself, has fought her through multiple courts at multiple levels.
I'm sure there are valid legal issues in this case, but does the High Court really need to waste its time on a squabble between a gold-digger and some other heirs? At its core, this is a pretty boring, mundane case that never would have seen the light of day were Anna Nicole not a famous, augmented woman who might get a few hundred million dollars if the case goes her way.
Oh well. Maybe the justices were just hoping that Ms. Smith would show up in court, giving them something more interesting than usual to look at.
