Raquel Leviss did not check the “no contact” box in her temporary restraining order against Scheana Shay, but the judge still ordered Shay to stay away from Leviss. A hearing will take place on March 29 to see if the order should be made permanent. Leviss claimed in court documents that Shay pushed her against a wall and punched her in the face after learning about her affair with Tom Sandoval, a claim Shay denied.
Raquel Leviss did not specifically request no contact in her temporary restraining order against Scheana Shay, but a judge ordered Shay to stay away from Leviss, and Shay’s lawyer confirmed she will comply with the order.
Scheana Shay’s attorney has revealed that a restraining order was placed against his client, despite Raquel Leviss not requesting no contact in her temporary order against the Vanderpump Rules star. The pageant queen accused Shay of punching her in the face and pushing her against a brick wall after discovering her secret affair with Tom Sandoval. Despite Shay’s denial of the allegations, the restraining order will remain in place until at least March 29, when a hearing will determine its permanence.
Shay’s lawyer, Neama Rahmani, confirmed that his client will adhere to the restraining order and stay away from Leviss, whether or not it affects the upcoming season 10 reunion of Vanderpump Rules. Rahmani also suggested that he would be challenging that the legal action taken against Shay was an abuse of the system, stating that such measures should be reserved for victims of violence.
After mixed messages regarding the interaction between Leviss and Shay, it was revealed that Leviss had broken her silence on the affair, apologizing for her actions and engaging in counselling for her codependency and addiction for receiving love. Sandoval also apologized for his affair publicly, and Madix broke her silence on the betrayal, stating she was “devastated and broken.”
As the controversy continues to unfold and Vanderpump Rules fans await the reunion show, it remains to be seen how the situation will progress and what will come of the restraining order placed upon Shay.
