John Goodman -- founder of the International Polo Club Palm Beach -- is facing a civil suit for allegedly drinking, driving and killing an engineering student. Originally, a Palm Beach judge ruled that Goodman's trust fund, set up for his two real children, was off limits during the wrongful death suit. A few months later, Goodman adopted his 42-year-old girlfriend. The plaintiffs argued that Goodman was using the girlfriend to control the trust fund. In the latest ruling, a judge has said that one-third of the trust -- the portion owned by the girlfriend -- is no longer safe from the lawsuit.
