Taylor Frankie Paul Files Restraining Order Against Dakota Mortensen

The custody battle between Taylor Frankie Paul and Dakota Mortensen just escalated big time. Taylor has filed for a restraining order against her ex—and this comes just two weeks after Dakota was granted temporary custody of their 2-year-old son following his own protective order filing. Yeah, it’s that messy.

The exes have been locked in a legal war over their young child, with Dakota making the first move by filing for a protective order and securing temporary custody rights. Now Taylor’s fighting back hard, taking her own legal action to keep Dakota at a distance. We’re talking court documents, lawyers, the whole nine yards.

This isn’t some casual co-parenting disagreement—both are bringing the heavy artillery to court. The timeline tells you everything: protective order filed, custody granted, restraining order filed. It’s a legal back-and-forth that shows just how fractured things have gotten between these two.

The stakes are huge here with their toddler caught in the middle. Whatever sparked this custody war, it’s clearly gotten to a point where both parents feel the need for legal protection.
