Fanile v. Manley
Appellant Andrew Manley (Manley) seeks to reverse the trial court’s issuance of a restraining order against him in favor of Respondent Turesi H. Faniel (Faniel). Manley contends that the trial court abused its discretion (1) in issuing a restraining order on the basis of its finding that Manley threatened Faniel with a firearm because there is no competent, relevant evidence supporting such a finding; (2) in issuing a restraining order on the basis that Manley controlled Faniel because control is not a legal basis for finding abuse under Family Code section 6203[1] and, further, the evidence does not support a finding of such control; and (3) when it found that Manley was not credible and that Faniel was credible.
As we conclude that the trial court’s restraining order is supported by substantial evidence and that it did not abuse its discretion in issuing that order, we will affirm.
