A hearing is set to take place in Los Angeles Dec. 5. Until then, Darius, 30, must stay more than 100 yards away from Keke Palmer, 30, and their son, and is prohibited from all contact with them.
In her filing, Palmer alleged that on Sunday, Nov. 5, “Darius trespassed into my home without my knowledge or consent, threatened me, then physically attacked me — lunging for my neck, striking me, throwing me over the couch, and stealing my phone when I told him I was going to call the police.”
According to the court documents, Palmer’s mother Sharon is listed as a witness who can corroborate the actress’s allegations of abuse, which allegedly occurred over a two-year period.
Sharon is cited as one of the witnesses to the alleged Nov. 5 incident detailed in Palmer’s request for restraining order filing. “Both my mother, Sharon Palmer, and my sister, Lawrencia Palmer, who was upstairs in my home and came running down to help me after she heard me screaming, can provide corroborating testimony as to this event,” it read.
Darius alsoposted on XThursday amid the news, including a photo of himself holding Leo and a caption that read, “I love you son. See you soon."
