- Justin Bieber baby saga "completely out of control"
- Mariah Yeater hasn't dropped paternity suit - lawyer
- Hey Mum, guess what? I'm the Sexiest Man Alive!
JUST hours after it was reported that Mariah Yeater had dropped the paternity lawsuit against Justin Bieber, her newly appointed lawyer has declared that the case is still very much alive.
The 20-year-old baby mama's new attorney, Jeffrey Leving, has told TMZ he firmly believes his client's allegation that Bieber is the father of her four-month-old son and they will push on with their mission to get the singer to take a DNA test.
Leving claims Yeater dismissed the lawsuit to open the door for a private settlement and avoid a "media circus".
"We want privacy," Leving told E! Online, "and we want to wrap this up."
"The case is completely out of control and I don?t want something terrible to happen to my client or her child."
Leving said Yeater is still recieving death threats and is being constantly stalked, but has still been coping as well as "a 20-year-old woman with no money and no job" can.
As for the Bieber's threats that he will counter-sue, Leving told the gossip website it was just another example of a celebrity trying to push around the little guy.
Ms Yeater claims she got pregnant after having sex with Bieber, then 16, while backstage at one of his concerts in Los Angeles in October 2010.
Bieber vehemently denies the allegations, saying he has never met Ms Yeater. He is reportedly prepared to take a paternity test to prove he is not the father.
He also plans to sue Ms Yeater and her lawyers for making a bogus claim.
Bieber, who is dating Disney starlet Selena Gomez, hired crisis management guru Matthew Hiltzik of Hiltzik Strategies to help manage the scandal.
Yeater had claimed on CBS show The Insider that Bieber immediately took a liking to her after his concert at the Staples Centre and asked if they could go somewhere.
She claimed that once in a backstage bathroom, "his whole demeanour changed. It went from cute and gushy to just more aggressive." She added that the sex lasted 30 seconds.
