Shaq slapped with temporary restraining order

It’s been a controversial summer for Shaquille O’Neal.

He has been caught on YouTube for disparaging former teammate Kobe Bryant during an impromptu rap performance. Then came news that he wanted to reconcile with his wife, Shaunie, whom he divorced in 2007.

Now, the Suns center has been slapped with a temporary restraining order by hip hot artist Alexis Miller – known professionally as Maryjane – the Atlanta Journal Constitution reported today.

Miller filed the restraining order in Atlanta with Fulton County Superior Court, alleging that O’Neal stalked her, threatened her with bodily harm and made harassing phone calls in which he breathed heavily into the phone before hanging up.

The Journal Constitution reported that Miller, 23, claimed she ended an intimate relationship with O’Neal last month. She alleged he then threatened to pay performers $50,000 each not to work with her.

“It’s been very difficult for her,” L. David Wolfe, Miller’s Atlanta-based attorney, told the Journal Constitution. “Her fears are not only for herself but also the people around her.” He said Miller, who has a young son, is “pretty traumatized.”

Wolfe said O’Neal, 36, still had not been served the legal paperwork as of early Friday afternoon. O’Neal’s agent, Perry Rogers, did not return three phone messages from the Journal Constitution left at his office Friday afternoon. Officials with the Suns couldn’t be reached for comment.

Under terms of the temporary restraining order, O’Neal is prohibited from having any contact or coming within 200 yards of Miller or her 19-month-old son. O’Neal, who resides in Florida, is not the father of the child, Wolfe said.

Both parties are scheduled to appear before Fulton County Superior Court Judge Karen Woodson on Sept. 4 to determine whether the restrictions should remain.
