Judge extends protection order for Megan Thee Stallion

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Richard Bloom on Thursday granted Megan’s request for a protective order after the hip-hop star alleged Lanez is stalking her from prison through surrogates while serving a 10-year sentence for shooting him in the feet.

The order was granted after a hearing. Michael Hayden, Lanez’s attorney, wrote in an objection to the restraining order request that his client’s incarceration means that “there no longer exists any form of current or future threat” to Megan and that there has been no direct contact between the two. two recently.

A summary of Thursday’s hearing said Bloom found that Megan’s attorneys had met their burden of proof to extend a temporary restraining order until Jan. 9, 2030.

Hayden did not immediately return a message seeking comment Friday.

Megan obtained the temporary order in November after alleging that Lanez, a Canadian rapper whose legal name is Daystar Peterson, is using third parties to continue harassing her online.

The petition says call records at the California Correctional Institution in Tehachapi show Lanez is coordinating attacks on Megan’s credibility, including making false claims that the gun and bullet fragments from the case are missing.

In December 2022, Lanez was convicted of three serious crimes: assault with a semi-automatic firearm; having a loaded, unregistered firearm in a vehicle and discharging a firearm with gross negligence.

A judge denied a motion for a new trial filed by Lanez’s attorneys, who are appealing his conviction.

Megan testified During the trial, Lanez shot the gun at her in the back of her feet and yelled at her to dance as he walked away from a van they were riding in leaving a party at Kylie Jenner’s house in the Hollywood Hills.

Megan, 29, was already a big rising star at the time of the shooting and the popularity of her music has skyrocketed since then. He won a Grammy for best new artist in 2021 and had number one singles with “Savage,” featuring Beyonceand as a guest at Cardi B “WAP”.

Lanez, 32, began releasing mixtapes in 2009 and saw a steady rise in popularity, moving on to major label albums. His last two reached the top 10 on the Billboard charts.
