Anna Nicole is back in the US
Anna Nicole Smith arrived Friday at federal court in San Francisco to continue her legal battle over her late husband’s fortune.
At issue is the will of Houston oil tycoon J. Howard Marshall, III, which did not include Smith.
She has argued he intended to provide for her through a special trust.
The US Supreme Court revived the former Playboy playmate’s pursuit of her late husband’s estate by ruling Smith deserved another day in court.
Smith, who once worked in a Mexia chicken restaurant, initially won a $474 million judgment.
That was cut to about $89 million and eventually reduced to nothing.
Marshall died in 1995 at age 90, one year after they married.
Smith was 26 when they wed.
Smith had been in the Bahamas since the September death of her 20-year-old son, Daniel, just days after the birth of her daughter, Dannielynn.
She’s also fighting eviction from the estate on which she’s been living as Bahaman authorities investigate whether her residency is legal.
