Selma Blair Faces Year-Long Restraining Order After Attack
13 Oct
Summary
- Selma Blair must stay 100 yards from nurse Ashley DeLeo.
- The restraining order is effective for one year until October 2027.
- Blair pleaded not guilty to felony assault charges after the incident.
Actress Selma Blair is now subject to a year-long restraining order barring her from approaching nurse Ashley DeLeo. This legal restriction, issued by a judge, mandates that Blair remain at least 100 yards away from DeLeo and prohibits any form of contact, including electronic communication.
The order remains in effect until October 11, 2027. The legal action stems from an alleged altercation on a flight and a subsequent incident at a hospital. Following her flight from Los Angeles to New York, Blair was arrested and then taken to a hospital.
While receiving treatment, she reportedly kicked nurse Ashley DeLeo in the chest. Blair was arraigned on Monday, October 11, 2026, and entered a plea of not guilty to two felony assault charges. These charges involve both the nurse and a Port Authority police officer.
Blair's legal representative attributed the incident to missed medication. This comes after the actress posted on social media shortly before her arrest, expressing feelings of sadness and not feeling well.
