LOS ANGELES -- A judge has granted Sandra Bullock a three year restraining order against a man accused of stalking the Oscar winning actress.

41-year-old Thomas Weldon has been ordered not to come within 100 yards of Bullock, her adopted baby boy, Louis Bardo Bullock, and her ex-husband Jesse James' three children who often stay with Bullock. Weldon has also been ordered not to contact the actress.

Bullock first obtained the restraining order against Weldon in 2003. It was extended but expired last year because Weldon was being held in Tennessee in a mental hospital. He was released earlier this year and showed up at a house Bullock keeps in Wyoming this past June, saying he had driven there to meet her, according to her attorney Ed McPherson.

Weldon was committed indefinitely to a state mental hospital in Wyoming on Tuesday, McPherson said.

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Carol Boas Goodson issued the restraining order Friday saying the man clearly posed a threat.

"This is clearly a case of a fan going beyond being a fan," Goodson said. "This is the downside of celebrity."

Bullock, who won a best actress Oscar for her role in "The Blind Side," recently relocated to Texas from the Los Angeles area. She was not present for the hearing. 




We met as friends of friends while still at school
I was all you ever really knew
When we met it was like a dream
For all I knew we could not fail
But now I know of your betrayal

Living in the older part of town
I worked all hours I could to bring us ’round
Your career was alive for you
But deep inside I watched it fail
And now I know of your betrayal

Your betrayal

If only I could hold you close
But now I know how love grows frail

When I asked if you’d leave me
Or ’bout the boyfriends you’d had
You said you’d stay with me always
And that you’d never be bad
But I would notice a smile
That you would hold within
As if your vanity flirted
With your knowledge of sin
Now you’re quiet and cold
Your eyes just stare into space
And if I ask you to talk
You just dissemble your face
And the smile that I hated
Is now a frown of denial
And that’s how I know of your unspoken betrayal
Oh, that’s how I know of your unspoken betrayal

Now I wish that I’d set you free
But I was terrified that I would fail
And now I know of your betrayal

Your betrayal
If only I could hold you close
But now I know how love grows frail
Oh now I know of your betrayal
Now I know of your betrayal
