Stern Shut Down Over DNA
Posted Apr 2nd 2007 11:29AM by TMZ Staff
Howard K. Stern lost a big one in the Bahamas today.
Stern's appeal on DNA testing was just rejected, and Howard K. was penalized by the three-judge panel to the tune of $10,000. TMZ has learned Stern was ordered to pay $5,000 in attorney's fees to the Registrar General and $5,000 to Birkhead's lawyer -- not Debra Opri, the Bahamian one.
This could clear the way for the unsealing of the DNA test results -- that should happen in court this week.
Typically, these penalties (called "sanctions") are imposed when an appeal is frivolous.

He was sanctioned because his appeal was "frivolous"???

There goes one card falling down from Stern's house of cards. I hope and pray the laws of physics act predictably.

Finally....some good news!

CNN has a different take:
NASSAU, Bahamas (AP)
-- A Bahamian court on Monday refused to prevent the release of DNA results that could reveal the father of Anna Nicole Smith's daughter.
A three-judge panel of the Court of Appeal rejected a challenge filed by Howard K. Stern, the lawyer-turned-partner of the Playboy playmate who died February 8 in Florida. http://www.cnn.com/2007/LAW/04/02/smith.dna.ap/index.html
No mention of appeal "withdrawn".
