Sandra Bullock Granted Three Year Restraining Order  5/12/07

Actress Sandra Bullock has won a three year restraining order against a fan who allegedly tried to kill her husband at her California home last month (Apr07).

Marcia Valentine is said to have attempted to run over TV mechanic Jesse James five times after driving her Mercedes onto the couple's Orange County estate.

Bullock yesterday (11May07) told a Santa Ana court that Valentine threw woven palm fronds with "weird signs" and "pieces of animal fur" over her gate and also left them on a neighbor's property.

A judge said there is "clear and convincing evidence" that Valentine had repeatedly stalked Bullock and her family and ordered her to stay at least 500 feet (152 meters) away from them.

Bullock had already taken out a temporary restraining order against Valentine, who police tracked down following her alleged car attack.

She was held on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon and has since posted bail of $25,000 and is awaiting her next court date.

Neither Bullock nor James were injured in the attack.
