Verne Troyer socked with restraining order from ex

Verne Troyer, the unique actor best known as ‘Mini-Me’ from Mike Myers’ Austin Powers franchise has been slapped with a restraining order after a former girlfriend told a court in L.A. he won’t leave her alone.

Former beauty queen Yvette Monet, 25, has filed a suit claiming the 40-year old, 2’8″-tall actor sent her ‘abusive and threatening emails and texts’ after they broke up recently. The Judge has now banned Verne from being within 100-yards of Monet’s home, work or car.

“I have moved on, but he keeps emailing, calling and texting me,” her court statement reads. “Awful messages like ‘I hope God is with you’… Calling me names like ‘hooker,” Monet explained in the prepared declaration. “I’m afraid for my life.”

The aspiring model also says Verne has warned her she’d, “better watch out” because his friends all have guns.

“I’ve asked him to leave me alone, but he said he won’t stop because he doesn’t want me to see anyone else.” Monet’s statement explained to the court.

Verne’s lawyers, meanwhile, are stunned by the claims, “He’s shocked by the false and frivolous accusations made by Ms Monet,” says Verne’s lawyer, Ed McPherson. “It’s beyond comprehension that a restraining order can be obtained with no notice to Mr Troyer and no chance to defend himself. We look forward to responding to these allegations in court.”

There’s no date for the hearing, but I’m guessing this case won’t make it that far.  We’ll let you know how it goes…
