Liver King's not going to hold domain over all of Austin, Texas for the foreseeable future ... 'cause if he sees Joe Rogan coming, he's gotta head the other way.

According to Liver King's release conditions, the social media influencer must stay at least 200 yards away from Rogan and his family members ... and, there's a no-contact order as well -- so, no hitting him up over the phone or social media either.

Liver King can't possess any weapons ... and, within a week of his release, he needs to go in for a mental health evaluation.

A member of the "Grandpa Robbers" gang, who was just convicted in the multimillion-dollar heist of Kim Kardashian's jewels in Paris, has reportedly died.

Didier Dubreucq's reported death comes as he'd been battling lung cancer -- and just a month after he was sentenced to 7 years in prison -- with 5 suspended -- in connection with the 2016 case.

The convicted criminal was hospitalized during the armed robbery trial as he received treatment for his cancer. He was not in court as his guilty verdict was announced on May 23.

Dillon Brooks' split with the mother of his children has gotten even nastier ... TMZ Sports has learned the NBA star is now asking for a restraining order against his ex.

Brooks filed for the TRO in Los Angeles on Wednesday ... alleging Heather Andrews -- who he shares a 5-year-old and a 2-year-old with -- has destroyed his belongings, hacked into his social media accounts, and even once threatened to cut off his fingers.

Brooks said in his request he met Andrews back in 2018 at a Las Vegas nightclub and started dating her a short time later. He said within months, she got pregnant with their first child ... and, around that time, he claimed her harassment of him began.

The Seattle man accused of being involved in the bombing of a fertility clinic in Palm Springs last month was found dead in the Los Angeles federal prison Tuesday ... and now we have a better idea how he died.

Federal sources tell TMZ ... Daniel Park -- who was being housed in the Metropolitan Detention Center downtown -- stepped up on a table on an upper tier of the facility and jumped ... plummeting to the ground floor.

Prison staff attempted life-saving measures ... but authorities said the 32-year-old was declared dead at the hospital later that day. It's unclear how many stories he fell.

Scott Wolf is seeking court-ordered protection against his estranged wife amid a nasty divorce.

The "Party of Five" star beelined it to court Tuesday in Utah and filed for a temporary restraining order against 'Real World' star Kelley ... TMZ has confirmed.

Scott's filing includes his declaration and another declaration from Michael Wolf, who appears to be one of his siblings.

Diddy's federal criminal trial is entering the final stages, and now we have a sense of how closing arguments will play out ... or at least the schedule and timeline are taking shape.

Prosecutors and defense attorneys were in court Wednesday while jurors were not present, and they hashed out a schedule for closing arguments ... with prosecutors going for 4 hours starting Thursday morning, and the defense making their case the following day.

It was a pretty boring day inside the courtroom, with Diddy keeping a singular AirPod in his ear for much of the proceedings and mostly looking down at his lap. Two of Diddy's sons, Quincy and Justin, were in court too, and they were fighting to stay awake, as was much of the gallery.

Fat Joe says he's going on the warpath against his former hypeman, and the attorney who's backing him, with the same vengeance that allowed him to survive the mean streets of the Bronx!!!

As we told you earlier today, Tyrone Blackburn -- the attorney who's representing Joe's ex-partner Terrance "T.A." Dixon -- was arrested for striking a man with his car ... and Joe says he's nothing but a clout-chaser!!!

The legendary rapper released a fiery statement Wednesday in the aftermath of the arrest ... once again ripping the lawsuit filed by T.A. that claims Joe was once diddling minors for his own sexual gratification.

The man accused of killing "King of the Hill" voice actor Jonathan Joss is claiming self-defense -- according to his lawyer.

Attorney Nico LaHood says Sigfredo Ceja Alvarez -- known as "Freddy" to friends and family -- is pleading not guilty, and insists he's innocent, adding ... "It’s difficult for anyone who's been accused of something they didn’t do, especially murder."

Alvarez was arrested earlier this month after allegedly shooting and killing his neighbor, Joss, during a heated argument in San Antonio, Texas, according to cops. The late actor’s husband, Tristan Kern de Gonzales, immediately dubbed it a hate crime -- claiming homophobic slurs were hurled by Alvarez before the fatal shot.

2:50 PM PT -- Jonathan Feldman, General Counsel at Therabody, tells TMZ ... “We believe the claims in the lawsuit are without merit. Therabody has a proud history of innovation and collaboration, and we take intellectual property rights very seriously. We intend to vigorously defend ourselves against these allegations and look forward to sharing the facts through the appropriate legal process.”

Celebrity-approved chiropractor and MoveU founder Dr. Mike Wasilisin is cracking more than backs ... 'cause he's taking legal action against Therabody for allegedly stealing his designs.

This is what we know ... in the Tuesday complaint obtained by TMZ, Dr. Mike -- whose clients include Antonio Brown, top comedians, talk show hosts, athletes and Bollywood stars -- says he shook hands with Therabody founder Dr. Jason Wersland years ago ... just to have that deal thrown out.

“Love Island” contestant Cashel Barnett has been held in a Utah jail since last month, facing charges of allegedly brutally assaulting his ex-girlfriend in front of their child ... and now he's facing even more felonies for allegedly sexually assaulting the same victim.

According to court docs obtained by TMZ … Utah prosecutors leveled three new charges against the reality star on Tuesday -- including aggravated sexual assault, aggravated assault, and domestic violence in the presence of a child.

Per the docs ... Cashel slapped and choked his ex-girlfriend while sexually assaulting her last November. This after he allegedly withheld any physical contact for a month because the alleged victim asked him to get a job to help support their child.

In a stunning move, the day before closing arguments in Diddy's federal criminal trial in NYC, prosecutors have pulled back on some key testimony during the trial -- specifically attempted kidnapping, attempted arson, and aiding and abetting sex trafficking.

Prosecutors said in a letter to Judge Arun Subramanian, the Government is following His Honor's instructions to "streamline" the jury instructions.

Prosecutors are still arguing Diddy allegedly kidnapped former employee Capricorn Clark (who was taken to a building and given a lie detector test to determine if she stole Diddy's jewelry), and Cassie (when she was allegedly held at the London Hotel) -- but, they're simply suggesting the "attempted kidnapping" language be removed from the instructions to the jury.

More drama in the Fat Joe civil case ... his accuser's attorney, Tyrone Blackburn, just got arrested for allegedly mowing down a process server with his car in NYC.

A rep for the New York Police Department tells us ... Blackburn was taken into custody Wednesday morning and booked for assault.

Cops say it all started on the night of May 12 when Blackburn got into his vehicle as a 66-year-old messenger was serving him a complaint in the Fat Joe case.

Karmelo Anthony -- the 17-year-old accused of killing a fellow teen at a track meet earlier this year -- will not face the death penalty ... something the alleged victim's father doesn't exactly seem happy about.

Anthony was formally indicted on one count of first-degree murder on Tuesday over his alleged role in an April 2 stabbing at a high school track meet ... and a short time after the charge was announced, law enforcement sources explained to TMZ Sports the death penalty won't be in play.

We're told in addition to prosecutors simply not seeking it ... at just 17 years old, Anthony is also too young to be the subject of the punishment.

The Diddy trial is putting his freak-offs on the world stage ... and a famous sex therapist says there are elements from the now-infamous sex marathons that couples can use to spice up their relationships -- and there's a legal way to make it happen too.

Dr. Laura Berman, best known for her show on the Oprah Winfrey Network, tells TMZ ... lots of folks are struggling in their sex lives, either from a lack of sex or boring sex, and that's why the freak-off element of the case -- for all its appalling elements -- is also titillating to some.

The sex doc says there are lots of ways for couples to spice up their sex life without putting their relationship at risk ... like sex toys and baby oil, which Diddy allegedly stockpiled.

Todd and Julie Chrisley are recalling the moment they found out President Trump granted them full pardons ... and Julie says she busted out crying.

The reality TV family sits down for an interview in an upcoming episode of FOX News Channel's "My View With Lara Trump" ... and a preview shows them telling Trump's daughter-in-law about how they reacted to the pardon news behind bars.

Julie says her daughter Savannah called her and told her Trump had signed the pardon and then the tears started flowing and she nervously hung up the phone.

Todd says he initially thought people in prison were pulling his chain ... but the reality hit him when a correctional officer came to his cell and told him it was official.

The "Chrisley Knows Best" star says God led people to advocate for him and Julie ... and he prayed every night that he would return home to his wife and kids.

Justin Baldoni's lawyer promised to refile four claims against Blake Lively but he missed the deadline to do so ... and now he tells us his client "will be pursuing additional legal options" against Blake.

Bryan Freedman tells TMZ ... they are proceeding with discovery in the Lively case and they are confident they will be able to prove there was no harassment or any smear campaign, as Blake alleges.

Freedman is also brushing off the fact a judge earlier this month threw out Baldoni's lawsuits against Blake, Ryan Reynolds and The New York Times.
