Ryan Seacrest Wins Restraining Order

Ryan Seacrest's lawyers aren't taking any chances -- they just got a temporary restraining order against the alleged stalker who was arrested at the E! building today.

Ryan Seacrest

Under the terms of the restraining order, filed by Ryan's lawyer Blair Berk, Chidi Uzomah is ordered to stay 100 yards away from Ryan. Uzomah must stay clear of Ryan's home, job, vehicle. He can have no contact -- either direct or indirect -- with Seacrest.

We're told Seacrest's people fear Uzomah is a real danger. We're hearing Ryan's lawyers moved quickly so LAPD Threat Management detectives could serve Uzomah with the TRO while he's still being interrogated at the jail. As we first reported, Uzomah is being held on felony stalking.

Chidi was convicted of three misdemeanors last month after attacking Ryan's bodyguard at a hospital in Orange County. He had a knife in his pocket. Uzomah pled guilty to three misdemeanors and was placed on probation. One term of probation -- stay away from Ryan. The D.A. is now considering whether to ask the judge to violate Uzomah's probation.

Uzomah was taken into custody earlier today ... moments after showing up to the E! building in Los Angeles with a knife. He also showed up at a radio station in Burbank earlier this month, looking for Ryan.

10. Restraining orders are as useless as the paper they are written on. The graveyards are full of men and women who had them and they did ZERO good. Dead is dead. I feel bad for him and Miley Cyrus whom I personally don't care for, but I would NOT want to be in her shoes. I think I don't like her creepy Dad pimping her out more than anything else. Bottom line is no one wants to live in fear, and I feel for those who do due to these freaks. All the more reason to carry. Enuff said.

14. Ryan, I told you your past would come back to haunt you.Just one more entry to his already "impressively" stiff resume. Just think, before Ryan got his star on the Walk of Shame,this trick probobly was workin' that corner charging 20 bucks for a quickie.
