According to E! News, actress Jennifer Love Hewitt, who claims she has been stalked since 2007 by a 62-year old, was granted a temporary restraining order Monday.

Hewitt, who recently broke her engagement, filed a petition on 23rd December in a Los Angeles Superior Court stating that David Nolte has sent over 120 'threatening and harassing .disturbing and violent letters that reference weapons he owns and fantasies he has wherein [Hewitt] is being impaled'. Other letters according to court documents detail 'delusional and violent fantasies about having sexual relations with Ms. Hewitt... marring her, impaling her and envisioning her fiancé with his head blown off.'

As well, Hewitt, who filed the petition after Nolte arrived at her mother's home on 21st December with a bouquet of flowers and three letters, which he left at the gate, states Nolte, who moved from Colorado to L. A., also sent her a package containing two plane tickets to Australia, including a vacation itinerary he had planned for the two of them. In a statement accompanying her petition, Hewitt says: 'I was terrified when I saw Mr. Nolte. Seeing him at my mother's house made me fear for my physical safety.'

The restraining order that orders Nolte to stay away from the star, holds good for three years, including protecting Hewitt's mother and former fiancé Ross McCall, with whom she was living at the time of filing the petition.
