Reality television star and high powered real estate agent, Matt Altman, filed for — and received — a restraining order against a man he says claimed to “hate all Jews” and threatened to kill him.
TMZ reports that court documents indicate Altman was granted a restraining order against leading Los Angeles-based dermatologist Alex Khadavi, who Altman claims has been harassing him on the phone for years but has now gone a step further by crashing a private real estate event Altman was attending to threaten him with homophobic and anti-Semitic death threats.
The court ordered Khadavi to maintain a distance of 100 yards from Altman and his girlfriend, as well as his brother, Josh Altman and his wife Heather.
The Altman brothers have been long-time stars on Bravo television network’s “Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles,” specializing in luxury real estate in Beverly Hills.
