Chris Brown Requests Lift On Rihanna Restraining Order Read more: Chris Brown Requests Lift On Rihanna Restraining Order





Chris Brown appeared in an LA courtroom on Friday for a routine progress report in the Rihanna assault case and requested a lift on his restraining order. While the restraining order is still in place, Chris is not allowed to come within 100 yards of Rihanna, except for at special events (such as Award Shows), it is minimized to 10 yards.
Chris hopes to obtain the lift in time for next month’s Grammy Awards where he is up for 3 awards. Last year, when Chris showed up at the BET Awards, Rihanna was not present and the award shows that she decided to attend, he opted to stay home. However, both are up for Grammys and his lawyer explained to the judge that the restraining order makes it difficult for the both of them to attend. Organizers would probably have to pay close attention to seating and their teams would have to make sure they completely avoided coming within 10 yards of each other which would be an uncomfortable situation for such a big night.

The judge did not immediately grant his request but did suggest a modification with the approval of Rihanna’s attorney who requested to speak to Rihanna first. If Rihanna agrees, then the restraining order will more than likely be modified before the show.
