Darden, who heads his own Los Angeles legal firm at Darden & Associates, insisted to
Radar that he had no idea about the case. “I have never been served with this document and NO [temporary restraining order] has been issued against me,” Darden insisted, claiming it was actually Smith who “has stalked my children and threatened us with death.” As reported in
The National Enquirer in March 2016, Darden had previously sought a restraining order against Smith, asking that she only contact him for “brief and peaceful” talks related to their child.
