Among other things in the motion filed in Williamson County, Tenn., Evans accused Schelske of refusing to set a date to mediate their differences unless she fired her attorney and issued a televised statement to deny her original allegations about his alleged adultery and pornography use, People said.

If she didn't comply, Evans quoted Schelske as saying he was prepared to "start World War III."

In his response Schelske denied making any type of demands or threats.

Evans filed for divorce in October, leaving ABC's "Dancing With the Stars" to handle the matter.

Evans's motion was filed Friday; Schelske's response came on Monday. The next hearing is scheduled for April 3.
