[Date set for argument on selling Casey Anthony's life story
Trustee Stephen L. Meininger wants to sell Anthony's story, and says he already has a bidder.

The judge in Casey Anthony's Chapter 7 bankruptcy has set a date next month to hear arguments on whether her life story is an asset that can be sold in order to pay her debts.

The hearing was set for the morning of April 9 at the Sam M. Gibbons U.S. Courthouse in Tampa.

The trustee overseeing Anthony's bankruptcy recently asked U.S. Bankruptcy Judge K. Rodney May for permission to sell "the exclusive worldwide rights in perpetuity to the commercialization of Anthony's life story" including her daughter's death and her high-profile murder trial.

According to trustee Stephen L. Meininger's motion, a man has already made a $10,000 offer to buy the rights in order to prevent Anthony from profiting from them in the future.

Meininger says he anticipates other offers and suggested the rights could be auctioned off to the highest bidder.

The winning bid would go toward paying Anthony's debts, which exceed $792,000.

Meininger's interest in liquidating Anthony's life story as an asset was apparent at a creditors meeting in Tampa this month. The trustee repeatedly questioned Anthony about whether she had received any offers or agreed to any deals to publish or sell her story.

She said she had not.

Also set for hearing April 9 is a motion by Zenaida Gonzalez, who is suing Anthony for defamation. Gonzalez's lawyers are seeking the judge's permission to question Anthony further about her finances and about who has been supporting her.

Anthony's legal team countered that Gonzalez's lawyers already had that chance at a recent creditors' meeting.

Gonzalez is suing because Anthony said in 2008 a similarly named nanny had kidnapped her daughter, Caylee.

The girl was later found dead. Authorities said the nanny never existed.

Anthony was acquitted of all major charges in her daughter's death in 2011.
