For months, the 16-year-old entertainer has been fighting a legal battle with her mother, Janie Williams, who has had sole custody of her daughter since her 1985 divorce from Tiffany's stepfather, Dan Williams. At stake is Tiffany's share of an estimated $3 million in royalties from her MCA recordings, including her hit album, "Tiffany," which has sold more than 4 million copies.

The court approved her aunt, Julie Abbas, as temporary guardian. It's Just A Short Hop To Brookville And Those Famous Brookville Hotel Chicken Dinners!

"Just in Time" brings Matheson and co-star Patricia Kalember together not only in a personal involvement but in a professional relationship that often has them at swords' point. "They think the steam goes out of the relationship once they get together," said Matheson, whose romantic comedy he's co- executive producer with Fred Barren premiered last Wednesday. There's an element of truth in that network belief. When Diane Chambers and Sam Malone got together on NBC's "Cheers," the producers had to keep pulling them apart to keep the story going. ABC's "Moonlighting" has suffered since David and Maddie went to bed, although the show's problems are more complicated than that.

"Fred Barron, who had worked on 'Kate created the show and Patricia Kalember and Tim Matheson star in "Just in Time." he wanted to set up a contemporary relationship," said Matheson. "Fred thinks that things don't start to get interesting until the couple gets together. Having been married years, I can say that's certainly so." The show is set in a Los Angeles magazine publishing company.

"Patricia's the star columnist and their professional relationship soon evolves into a romantic liaisoh. It's difficult because we work together.

And she has a long-distance relationship. She's playing it safe, and he's just come out of a divorce and tends to be a little more reckless." The relationship between the two will change in the course of the series' spring run. "In the beginning, she's resistant and has a million reasons why they shouldn't," he said. "He says let's go for it." Matheson is best-known to movie audiences from his role as a womanizing fraternity brother in the hit movie "National Lampoon's Animal House." He later starred in "A Little Sex." Matheson has a long line of TV credits dating back to 1961 when he was a child and starred in "Window on Main Street," with Robert Young. He did guest shots on "Leave It to Beaver" and was a regular on "The Virginian," "Bonanza," "The Quest" and "Tucker's Witch." "A series is so grueling," he said, "especially an hour show.

A half- hour show's much better. We rehearse one day and then shoot it one- camera with no laugh track. It's not an audience show, because when you do that you need two laughs a page. With that kind of structure you can't. deal with the emotions or any depth of character.

"We let the humor come out of the situations, rather than do a set-up, then a joke, then another set-up." Matheson has also begun producing movies. He recently went to. Australia to check out movie locations for "Blind Fury," an action- adventure that he will produce but not appear in. It's based on a series of films from Japan called "Zatoichi" "the blind one." Matheson and his wife, former ballerina Megan Murphy, recently became parents for the second tune. Their new daughter is Emma.
