Although early Friday morning a judge ordered that Anna Nicole Smith's body be given to Richard Milstein, who also has legal custody over Dannielynn Hope, and after that he announced that he planned to bury the former supermodel in the Bahamas, where she had already secured a spot next to her son, Daniel, who passed away last summer, things changed radically Monday morning.

After the dramatic trial came to an end, all the three parties involved (Virgie Arthur - Anna's estranged mother, Howard K. Stern - Anna's lover and Larry Birkhead - Anna's former lover) reached an unexpected agreement. In a move that would have made for the most tearful scene in a soap opera, the three arch-enemies held hands and spoke together with the press, saying that they all agreed upon laying Anna to rest where she had meant to live the rest of her life, in the Bahamas.

But Virgie Arthur probably realized, from Friday to Monday, that by giving up so easily on her daughter's dead body her chances of getting her fortune are decreasing. A few hours after said heart-rendering joint statement, she went back to the judge and asked him to issue a stay for the body, to prevent Milstein from flying it to the Bahamas. The judge denied her request so, logically, Arthur went to another court to make her voice heard.

On Monday morning, Arthur filed the court papers at Florida's Fourth District Court of Appeals to stop the body from leaving the US. She claims that, were Anna to be interred in Bahamian soil, she couldn't afford to go and see her each time she would want to because she doesn't have that much money. Although the new appointed judge did not quite grant her request of taking her daughter's body and flying it to Texas (where she has a family plot), he did issue a stay for the time being. Anna will remain at the coroner's office (in the refrigerator) until Arthur gets to have her say in the court of law.

It seems that the drama is just beginning to unfold: what appeared to be its closure was nothing else but the offset of a long period of trials and tribulations. And the case of Anna's body is just one aspect of a messy situation - there is also the question of Dannielynn's real father to be settled, along with the death of both Anna and her son Daniel.
