Kidd's wife gets own restraining order January 13, 2007
TRENTON, N.J. (AP) -- The wife of
New Jersey Nets star
Jason Kidd has filed her own domestic-violence restraining order, less than a week after the point guard accused her of beating him and extreme cruelty.
"There was a lot, a lot of physical violence," Joumana Kidd's attorney, Raoul Felder, said in Saturday's New York Post.
Felder said that Joumana Kidd asked the court for the restraining order on Friday.
On Monday night, police served Joumana Kidd with a restraining order obtained by her husband. On Tuesday, the 33-year-old NBA star filed for divorce from his wife of 10 years, citing "extreme cruelty" and saying that he was an abused spouse.
Under the protection order filed by Jason Kidd, he must pick up his children curbside for visits so that Joumana does not violate the order, attorneys said.
The Kidds, married in 1997, were involved in a domestic violence matter six years ago when he played for the
Phoenix Suns.
In that incident, Jason Kidd was arrested in January 2001 after Joumana told police he slapped her in the face during an argument about feeding their son, who is now 8. The couple also have 4-year-old twin daughters.
Kidd pleaded guilty to spousal abuse, was fined $200 and ordered to take anger-management training.
In the dissolution papers Kidd filed Tuesday, however, he painted a detailed portrait of Joumana Kidd as a vitriolic, jealous and paranoid wife who suspected her husband was cheating and who was prone to public outbursts and threats.
