Judge Reprimands Howard K. Stern for Violating Court Order
Jurors in the Houston Probate Court may have wondered why an attorney for Anna Nicole Smith suddenly began sitting in the audience in the rear of the courtroom instead of with his client and the other attorneys at counsels’ table trying the case. The reason is that Judge Mike Wood became enraged when Stern confessed to the blatantly unethical, fraudulent and unauthorized use of confidential financial documents which were protected by a known, legally binding confidentiality agreement and which Stern pilfered from the courtroom to use in another case.
