Why don’t all of us simply neglect that little restraining order tiff ever even occurred??
It appears like that’s what Raquel Leviss needs the world to do proper now, at the least. The Vanderpump Rules star — who infamously filed a short lived restraining order in opposition to castmate Scheana Shay earlier this month — is now strolling it again.
Of course, we reported just a little bit about that transfer earlier on Friday morning. In a stunning growth, Scheana’s lawyer confirmed Raquel requested Bravo host Andy Cohen “serve” the 37-yr-previous Shay with “papers” concerning the TRO whereas filming the VPR reunion episode on Thursday. Except that “serve” turned out to be phony, as a result of the actual dismissal docs hadn’t even been filed with the courtroom but!!

So, right here’s the place the entire thing stands now. On Friday, ET spoke to Tom Sandoval‘s 28-yr-previous mistress concerning the TRO submitting. When requested about how she had Andy “serve” Scheana with the untimely dispersal docs, Raquel confirmed she is going to maneuver to dismiss the restraining order:
“I can confirm that my attorney took my case off the court calendar Wednesday and is filing the appropriate paperwork requested by the court today to dismiss the TRO from moving forward after the 29th. We let the court know I will not be moving forward with a permanent restraining order.”
From Raquel’s POV, then, it was supposedly Scheana’s authorized crew which balked at getting the TRO dropped earlier than Thursday’s reunion particular:
“My team tried to work with Scheana on a mutually beneficial agreement hoping to get the TRO dropped earlier so we could film [the reunion episode] together. The TRO was intended to provide a cooling-off period after I was punched but I didn’t want to continue with the permanent RO nor did I want to cause Scheana further agony and stress.”
So it was Raquel who initially filed the order, however then additionally Raquel who needed it dissolved prematurely? And Brock Davies‘ spouse was allegedly the one who held up the method on that, regardless of clearly eager to be carried out with it??
Hmmm…
Shay’s legal professional is already calling bull s**t on that. You’ll recall how we reported on Naema Rahmani‘s feedback earlier Friday morning. The authorized eagle slammed “Rachel” (sure, he solely ever used her authorized title!) for serving Scheana papers which “have no legal meaning” after Leviss had initially “requested a permanent restraining order,” and never a short lived one.

As Rahmani beforehand defined, Raquel can solely “drop” the restraining order at subsequent Wednesday’s listening to in courtroom. So merely sending un-filed papers to Scheana means actually nothing. To ET, Rahmani additionally added this new, stronger slam:
“If she wants to make this go away, she can tell everyone that she wasn’t punched and she lied, and that she doesn’t intend to go forward with a permanent restraining order. That wouldn’t undo the damage she has caused, and she still filed a false police report, but it would go a long way toward resolving the legal issues.”
Yikes!
The outlet requested Leviss extra about that a part of the unresolved authorized tussle, too. She admitted to having Cohen give Scheana un-filed paperwork. However, she claimed it was carried out to indicate her “intentions” in direction of resolving issues with the Scheananigans podcast host:
“The document was a dismissal form that the court asked us to submit and I wanted to show Scheana my intentions and that we had informed the judge we weren’t moving forward — and it was an explanation at the reunion to alleviate Scheana’s concerns.”
Ooookay…
Behind the scenes, an insider gave an account of the in poor health-fated try on the reunion re-connection, too. According to this supply, Raquel and Scheana’s respective groups “tried to work out an agreement” that may deliver them collectively on stage to movie the VPR reunion. Unfortunately, that try “fell apart” in some unspecified time in the future earlier than Thursday.
The supply defined:
“Raquel’s team, with productions knowledge, attempted to find a mutually acceptable resolution with Scheana to help get the TRO dropped prior to filming so that they could both attend the reunion together. Raquel’s team proposed they would both agree that the argument escalated and got physical but that both women wished to move forward from it, agreed there was no fault, would stop talking about it after the reunion, and would stop making any disparaging remarks related to the incident after the reunion.”
According to that insider, Leviss was apparently prepared to look in courtroom again on Tuesday — greater than every week forward of her beforehand-scheduled courtroom date — to jettison the restraining order.
However, Scheana allegedly “rebuked” the supply. And, she supposedly tried to get Leviss to alter her story about how the altercation went down within the first place:
“Had they come to a reasonable agreement Raquel was prepared to appear in court Tuesday to drop the TRO. Unfortunately, Scheana rebuked the offer, which kept the burden on production to find a solution for them to film separately. Scheana’s team wanted Raquel to say the punch never happened, and Raquel refused.”
Whew.
It continues to be loads! And we’re right here for it! Reactions, Perezcious readers?? Do you purchase Raquel’s TRO claims in these new feedback?! Sound OFF together with your take down (under)…
