In response to the emergency filing, the Los Angeles County judge granted a temporary restraining order that states that Jackson must stay at least 100 yards away from both the actress and their son, as well as any childcare or schooling established for the infant.
In addition to granting Palmer temporary sole physical and legal custody of Leo, the temporary restraining order states that Jackson is not allowed to have visitation with his son, with a hearing set for Dec. 5 to determine further action on the temporary arrangement.

Jackson seemed to address the situation late Thursday, sharing a photo of himself holding Leo in a tweeton X(formerly known as Twitter).
“I love you, son. See you soon,” he captioned the shot.
In the declaration attached to Thursday’s filing, Palmer alleges there were “many instances of physical violence, including striking and grabbing me around the neck, descriptions of Darius destroying my personal property, including diaries and prescription eyeglasses, throwing my belongings into the street, throwing my car keys to prevent me from driving away, hitting me in front of our son, spewing profanities about me to our son, threatening to kill himself with a gun if I left him, harassment, and other physical and emotional abuse.”
Palmer and Jackson’s issues briefly went public in July when Jacksoncalled her outfor wearing a fitted, black bodysuit under a sheer dress to watchUsherperform at hisLas Vegas Residency.
“We live in a generation where a man of the family doesn’t want the wife & mother to his kids to showcase booty cheeks to please others & he gets told how much of a hater he is,” Jacksonwrote in one since-deleted tweet. “This is my family & my representation. I have standards & morals to what I believe. I rest my case.”
The actress told PEOPLE in October shefelt the need to make changesin how transparent she’s willing to be with the public on social media.
“I’m having my own personal boundaries for what I feel like I want out there or what I want to give people the opportunity to speak on,” she said.
