Lark Voorhies' mother granted restraining order against new son-in-law
Actress Lark Voorhies' mom has been granted a temporary restraining order against her new son-in-law, after learning a warrant had been issued for his arrest.
The former Saved by the Bell star quietly wed Jimmy Green in Las Vegas in April (15), and on Friday (12Jun15), shortly after news of the nuptials became public, it emerged the actress' new husband is a fugitive.
Green was hit with charges of making criminal threats and
disorderly conduct following an alleged bust-up with a store owner
in Tucson, Arizona in 2012, and an arrest warrant was issued after
he failed to appear at a subsequent court hearing.
While Green insists the matter was "blown out of proportion" and is
eager to put the drama behind him, Voorhies' mom Tricia does not
agree.
It has now been revealed that days before the wedding news was made
public last week (12Jun15), Tricia had filed for a restraining
order against Green, and on Tuesday (09Jun15), a judge granted her
request, People magazine reports.
A court hearing has been scheduled for 29 June (15), at which time
Tricia will reportedly fight to get the temporary restraining order
made permanent.
Meanwhile, Lark's representative tells the publication that the
actress is hoping for the best and is mending her relationship with
her mother, saying, "We're still looking into everything. Lark and
her mother are spending more time together."
Tricia also tells People, "I hope he proves to be everything that
she hopes him to be."
