Recently, one of Tiger Woods' alleged mistresses filed legal documents in Manatee County, Florida.  The mistress, who filed the action under her legal name of Melinda Jannette, is asking that a judge determine the paternity of her 9 year old son, Austin Brinling.  The respondent listed on Jannette's petition was listed as Elderick Woods.

TMZ reports that the documents and petition were created to "establish paternity, parental responsibility, time-sharing, and/or child support of a minor child or children."  The documents also state that the person filing is trying to legally establish who is the father of a child.

At this time, the 9 year old is staying with Melinda's mother and the grandmother asserts that a DNA test was performed in 2002.  The test showed that another man was the boy's father.

However, Melinda asserts that her mother does not have any real DNA results and she plans to have Tiger submit to testing.

News sources are reporting that Tiger Woods soon-to-be ex wife, Elin, has hired a top lawyer in London.  She wants the lawyer to look into her husband's finances as she enters into divorce proceedings in the state of Florida.

Since her battle with Woods has become increasingly tumultuous, the 30 year old has had to turn to litigators for help.  She recently hired Walter Jnr, a lawyer that is very experienced in tracking down hidden assets. 

A few days ago, a close friend of Elin's told news sources that, "She said from the beginning that she didn't want to fight over money, but at the same time she wants to know exactly how much money Tiger has."  Elin is seeking $750 million from the pro golfer.  With the proceedings become more and more involved, it looks like there may be little hope for reconciliation between the two spouses.
