Unbelievable. Some hallucinating woman gets a restraining order against Letterman.

No, see, the judge was just erring on the side of caution here...

This explains it:

state District Judge Daniel Sanchez


It's Duartes brother. :D

Sanchez was either too busy to deal with it that day, and pushed it back to the 12th to buiy time.

Or he thought crazy chicks are hot, wet his wick and thought it was a merry F'n Christmas.

Bummer. I guess this means DL cannot stalk this woman in New Mexico. At least, he would need to maintain a three foot distance.

Erm, seriously, if she wished stop receiving "code" messages, she'd just turn the telly off or flip the channel, DUH!

It is silly, the net effect is to prohibit him from doing something he is unlikely to do in the first place. Interstingly enough, it does not prohipit him from doing his mind control tricks and coded instructions on his telecast. That David Letterman is so nefarious, do you suppose he is an undercover Right winger?
