Judge Dismisses Restraining Order Request Against Rams’ Puka Nacua

Prosecutors are reviewing possible misdemeanor charges.

Overview

  • The restraining order petition, which the accuser withdrew Tuesday in Los Angeles County court, was dismissed without prejudice by Judge Debra R. Archuleta.
  • Her attorney said they pulled the request to focus on the civil lawsuit and cited Nacua’s voluntary rehab stay in March.
  • The civil complaint alleges Nacua bit the woman after a Dec. 31 dinner in Century City and made an antisemitic remark during the meal.
  • The Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office is reviewing a police referral for potential misdemeanor charges in a process that is separate from the civil case.
  • Nacua denies the allegations, his lawyer cites a sober witness, signals a defamation filing, and alleges the accuser sought millions of dollars to keep the claims private.
