“I feel like maybe he’ll shoot me again, and maybe this time I won’t make it,” Megan said in court,according to reporter Meghann Cuniff.

The order is based on “unlawful violence, a credible threat of violence, or stalking,” the court docs state.

Megan hadfiled a restraining order against Lanezon Dec. 17, requesting that the Los Angeles Superior Court judge prevent Lanez from allegedly harassing Megan from prison through third parties while he serves a 10-year sentence in jail.
