Restraining order against Letterman tossedBARRY MASSEYAssociated PressSANTA FE, N.M. - A state judge has lifted a restraining order granted to a Santa Fe woman who accused talk-show host David Letterman of using coded words to show that he wanted to marry her and train her as his co-host.
Judge Daniel Sanchez on Tuesday granted a request by lawyers for Letterman, host of CBS' "Late Show," to quash the temporary restraining order that he earlier granted to Colleen Nestler.
She alleged in a request filed Dec. 15 that Letterman has forced her to go bankrupt and caused her "mental cruelty" and "sleep deprivation" since May 1994.
Nestler requested that Letterman, who tapes his show in New York, stay at least 3 yards away and not "think of me, and release me from his mental harassment and hammering."
Lawyers for Letterman contended the order was without merit.
"He is entitled to a protection of his legal rights and a protection of his reputation," Pat Rogers, an Albuquerque lawyer representing Letterman, told the judge Tuesday.
The New Mexico court doesn't have jurisdiction over Letterman, who is a resident of Connecticut, Rogers said.
Nestler appeared in court without a lawyer and represented herself.
Responding to a question from the judge, Nestler said she had no proof of the allegations she had made against Letterman.
She also said that if Letterman or any of his representatives came near her, "I will break their legs" and establish proof of her allegations.
Nestler said after the court hearing that "I have achieved my purpose. The public knows that this man cannot come near me."
She also said that her comment about breaking legs "is not a threat."
"I appealed to the court for a restraining order to keep this man away from me, but now that's been denied me," she said. "He has access to me. He can actually come for me or send people. He has many accomplices. I know this sounds crazy. I was crazy to have listened to him in the beginning."
Nestler's application for a restraining order was accompanied by a six-page typed letter in which she said Letterman used code words, gestures and "eye expressions" to convey his desires for her.
She wrote that she began sending Letterman "thoughts of love" after his show began in 1993, and that he responded in code words and gestures, asking her to come East.
Nestler said Letterman asked her to be his wife during a televised "teaser" for his show by saying, "Marry me, Oprah." Her letter said Oprah was the first of many code names for her and that the coded vocabulary increased and changed with time.

If I had been judge, I would have ordered a complete psychiatric evaluation for this woman.

Why not? She did say if any Letterman or any of his "people" came near here she would break their legs, and she used a court of law to claim that he when he was talking about Oprah he was talking about her.

I'm still stunned she got the initial restraining order. I guess you can go into court and get just about anything you want sometimes if the judge or the court officials don't read what's in front of them.

I think he meant it's pretty much utterly obvious she's batshit insane, psyche eval or no.

[kcchief19]

Ah. Sorry. My sarcasm detector is on the fritz. I'm having it looked at after the New Year.

[Passacaglia]

Sleep deprivation? Letterman? I find the exact opposite to be the case.

[st.cronin]

I want a restraining order against britney spears. Keep that ho away.

[panerd]

What would be great is if Letterman really is fucking with her.

I really hopes he goes and visits her house on the show

[Surtt]

The really scary part is that he granted her one to start with.

[Galaril]

Wow! Would you like an elephant with those NUTZ?

[Karlifornia]

Can anyone else picture this lady watching Letterman with all the lights of, and windows boarded up-And everytime Letterman coughs or something, she dives behind her couch, trembling in fear?

[JeeberD]

Ellen talks to me during her show. She's convinced me to get a sex change operation so that we can live happily ever after as wife and wife.

[Desmond]

Did ya ever see that HBO movie where Ellen and Sharon Stone get it on? Yeah, Ellens given me a boner, i admit it.

[JeeberD]

Yup, I've seen it and enjoyed it. Though mostly because of Sharon. But you do have to admit, Ellen has nice taste in women...

[Desmond]

She's the Collin Ferrell of lesbians.

Maybe I'm just not crazy enough, but if I thought (or *knew*) that a tv person was communicating with me, and it was creeping me out, I would TURN THE TV OFF.

[Eaglesfan27]

Ahh, but to the truly paranoid mind, that TV person will be able to communicate and influence you even if the TV is off.
