Case closed for Anna Nicole Smith's doctor

LOS ANGELES - A psychiatrist who prescribed drugs to model and actress Anna Nicole Smith has been re-sentenced to probation and fined $100.

Dr. Khristine Eroshevich previously completed the sentence imposed Friday by a Los Angeles Superior Court judge, thus ending her long-running case. Eroshevich and Smith's manager, Howard K. Stern, were convicted in 2010 of two counts of conspiring to obtain prescriptions under a false name.

The prescriptions for opiates, muscle relaxants and other drugs were prescribed for anxiety months before Smith, onetime Playboy Playmate of the Year, died in Florida of an accidental overdose in 2007.

The defendants were not charged with causing her death.

The convictions were thrown out by the trial judge but reinstated after prosecutors appealed.

Judge Robert Perry threw out one conviction and reduced another to a misdemeanor at Friday's re-sentencing.
