"I wish to put to rest the latest accusations by Mark Hatten," attorney J. Christopher Smith told RadarOnline.com.
"They are absolutely false. Mr. Stern has not in any way made any recent attempts to contact or threaten Mr. Hatten."
The man making the claim, according to South Carolina police, is Mark Hatten, one of Anna Nicole's ex-boyfriends.
He has told Greeleyville police that he received a "threatening" message from Stern on MySpace just over two weeks ago.

"The hope is that MySpace and the authorities at the Greeleyville Police Department will quickly conduct the appropriate investigation.
"At which point, they will most certainly conclude that there is absolutely no basis in fact to this ridiculous story."
