Dressed all in black, wearing a large diamond ring, pearl jewellery and carrying a Chanel handbag, Buttrose, 47, the niece of media identity Ita, attended Waverley Local Court on Monday with her fiance Zoran Stoper.

Her son, Andrew Spira, did not appear, his lawyers telling magistrate Michael Barko that he was in Queensland and would not be returning to NSW for any further court matters.

Buttrose was charged last October after she allegedly threatened Spira with violence in relation to him giving evidence in another court case. She pleaded not guilty at a hearing last October.

According to court documents, the alleged threat occurred at Bellevue Hill sometime between 12.01am on August 27 and 2.35pm on October 13 last year.

Documents before the court alleged Buttrose threatened injury to Spira "on account of a thing lawfully done by Andrew Spira as witness in judicial proceedings".

Police also issued an apprehended violence order against Buttrose on behalf of Spira.

Both the threatening injury case and the order were withdrawn and dismissed on Monday.

"Give my regards to the complainant [Spira]," Mr Barko told the court as he closed the case.

Buttrose shielded her face with papers as she left court and was driven away in a Land Rover.

Before she was charged last October, police had made four other visits to her Vaucluse home in the past two years.

In March 2015 and again in March 2016 police were called after a panic button was activated during domestic disputes.

In August 2016, police were called, then applied for an apprehended violence order against Stoper on behalf of another individual, who was facing drugs charges and cannot be named for legal reasons.

Police were also called to her home in October when Buttrose allegedly verbally abused officers and assaulted a constable.
