No restraining order sought for Artest

A check Monday of Placer County court records indicates no restraining order has been sought against Sacramento Kings basketball star Ron Artest by his wife.

The two allegedly fought at their Loomis home March 15, and Artest was arrested by sheriff's deputies on charges of domestic violence and preventing a person from using a phone to make an emergency call.

Sheriff's officials have not identified the woman in the dispute, citing confidentiality rights of a victim in a domestic violence incident.

A neighbor identified Artest's wife, Kimsha, as the victim, and Artest issued a public apology to his wife on Saturday.

After Artest was taken for booking at the Placer County jail on March 5, the victim was given an emergency protective order by the Sheriff's Department, which meant Artest could not return home or have any contact with the victim for at least five business days.

The order is intended to give a victim enough time to obtain a restraining order, if the person chooses.

Doesn't make me feel any better about Ron Ron. He's a time bomb, waiting to explode. Time to cut him loose.

Well a TRO is pretymcuh SOP in any domestic situation so the fact that the judege did not issue one speaks volumes. Too bad the fans did not know this before booing Ron... might not have mattered to them but it does to me.

Mmm...the fact that Mrs. Artest is not seekign a restriang order against her money train and husband actually doesn't mean much at all -- in fact even in cases of battered women that is very common, let alone feisty women who's husbands bring home millions in bacon every year. Not an indictment of Ron either, but it really doesn't mean much outside of the woman not wanting to either screw up moneybags' career or get a divorce. Given the history of these two, one more slap or shove or whatever the hell went on is liekly not any real breaking point, as it might be with a more normal couple.

Agree 100%

... and I will just add that I am, and I was before this incident, in favor of trading Ron Artest. He is way more trouble than what he is worth.
