Despite the fact that Anna Nicole Smith's ex boyfriend Larry Birkhead has fired his attorney, it appears that a DNA test will be performed to determine who the father is of Anna Nicole Smith's baby Dannielynn Hope. According to a report from AOL's TMZ.Com the judge in the paternity dispute over Anna Nicole's baby has made it clear -- DNA testing is about to happen.
Sources say the judge has ordered the parties back in court Tuesday where experts in the DNA field will be called to testify. It is unclear whether some or all of the DNA samples will already have been taken for Tuesday's hearing.

Us Weekly magazine had reported earlier that Larry Birkhead and Virgie Arthur arrived separately in the Bahamas on Friday afternoon to attend a crucial court hearing in the ongoing fight for custody of Anna Nicole Smiths 6-month old daughter, Dannielynn.
The judge will determine if Howard K Stern is required to submit to a paternity test, even though he is listed on the babys birth certificate as her father. It is Birkheads hope that the DNA testing will take place today.

Both Stern and Birkhead claim to be Dannielynns biological father. Birkhead, 34, says that hes anticipating a positive outcome to todays hearing. Im hoping for the best, he says. Im hoping for good news.
The report also notes that says that he has confidence in the Bahamian court system. Birkhead arrived with his Bahamian lawyer, Emmrick Knowles, after his American attorney, Debra Opri and he parted ways.
Good news about the court ordered DNA test of Dannielynn....but once again we have to wait......I won't believe it til it happens....and the results are BACK and CLEAR.
I was on the other side of the house preparing my evening meal and so I got to see Nancy Grace and the Showbiz show.
I laughed so hard.
After following this thread and nill tv watching NG was like watching a rerun from the FR thread.
I thinks the LISTS are ten times better on this thread than NG had esp. the drug list.
Nancy should read up here ya'll before she attempts to put her show together.
Great Job FReeper Sluths!
