Restraining order against Oakland activist denied by judge
Briefly

An Alameda County Superior Court judge ruled against a restraining order request by Brandon Harami against Seneca Scott, concluding there was no evidence of violence or credible threats. Judge Maria Morga stated Scott did not intend to harm Harami. Scott characterized the restraining order attempt as an act of 'crybully theatrics.' Harami expressed disappointment at the ruling, while earlier this year, Scott settled another case related to Harami by agreeing to stop posting his personal information. Harami's claims included allegations of harassment and homophobic slurs by Scott.
Scott said, "After years of targeted harassment, Brandon Harami's failed attempt to secure a restraining order against me was a textbook case of crybully theatrics - designed not to protect, but to punish. The judge saw through it."
Brandon Harami expressed, "I can't express any words how disappointed I am that the judge who oversaw my restraining order case did not grant me a permanent restraining order."
In his original application, Harami sought to prevent Scott from harassing or intimidating him online, claiming Scott posted homophobic slurs and accused him, without evidence, of being a pedophile.
Judge Maria Morga stated there were no acts of violence or credible threats made by Scott against Harami, concluding she didn't believe Scott intended to harm him.
