Judge seals records in Eddy Arnold paternity case
AP, Jan 7, 2009 3:00 pm PSTA judge has sealed records in a paternity suit filed by a California man who claims he is the biological son of the late country singer Eddy Arnold. Forty-eight-year-old Christopher Tanner of Anaheim filed his suit in June, a month after Arnold died at 89.
Probate Judge Randy Kennedy on Monday ordered all new filings private.
Arnold's family says Arnold denied fathering Tanner. The family asked the judge to seal records to limit damage to the late singer's reputation.
Arnold's best-known songs include the 1965 hit "Make the World Go Away."
