really!
It makes me wonder if Stern really did have to submit it. I say he had to.
Stern's lawyer is still trying to spin it (that a deal will take place)...
No paternity resolution

NASSAU, Bahamas (AP) – DNA tests to identify the father of Anna Nicole Smith’s infant daughter may not resolve legal struggles over custody of the girl, a lawyer for Smith’s former partner said Wednesday.
Howard K. Stern, who has been caring for 6–month–old Dannielynn in the Bahamas, was complying with the court ordered tests, but may not relinquish custody even they prove the father is Smith’s ex–boyfriend Larry Birkhead, attorney James Neavitt said.
"Howard is the legal father. If Mr. Birkhead’s DNA matches, then he can come and say he’s the biological father, and then you’ll have that court battle," Neavitt told The Associated Press.
Neavitt did open the possibility of a negotiated settlement if the test proves his client is not the biological father. He said Stern respects Birkhead and that the two men will likely reach an agreement if the Los Angeles–based photographer is proven to be the father.
