HOLLYWOOD -
Anna Nicole Smith's estranged mother Virgie Arthur has been summoned to court in the Bahamas for allegedly refusing to pay her legal bills.
Attorney Jamal Davis claims he helped Arthur make sure her granddaughter, Dannielynn, didn't leave the Bahamas, where she was born, while the matter of paternity played out in court.
And now that the battle between feuding fathers Howard K. Stern and Larry Birkhead is almost resolved, he wants Arthur to pay up.
Davis says his law firm helped Arthur obtain an order to ensure Dannielynn was not taken outside of the Bahamas.
He tells TV show Entertainment Tonight, "We represented her to the best of our abilities. We managed to avoid the child being removed from the Bahamas up until the point of time that we stopped representing her and we haven't received payment for our time and devotion spent on this matter.
"We're just exercising our right as any creditor would do to recover our fees. It's unfortunate we have to take this route."
