Julia Lemus, the ex-girlfriend of boxer Andy Ruiz ex has won her court battle with him as a  judge granted her a permanent restraining order earlier this month.

Lemus had been seeking the order of protection since April 2023,  after she alleged Ruiz sexually assaulted, abused, and terrorized her throughout their relationship.

In her application for the order, Lemus who began seeing Ruiz around 2016. Said the 34-year-old would often grab and yank her to move her wherever he wanted her to go. She also claimed he would “jokingly” punch her in her arms and legs, leaving her with bruises.

Lemus also said Ruiz pointed an AK-47 at her face during a 2023 incident. After she said she told him she felt uncomfortable with a recent firearm purchase he had made.

Both parties testified in front of a judge along with multiple witnesses. Ultimately, the judge ruled in favor of Lemus on April 8 granting her a 3-year restraining order that she will have the ability to renew upon request.
In making her ruling, Judge Sharon L. Kalemkiarian wrote in court documents she determined the evidence showed Lemus “is in fear as a result of aggressive, demeaning and controlling behavior by Mr. Ruiz.”

“Mr. Ruiz did assault her,” Kalemkiarian added, “did disturb her peace, and did exercise coercive control throughout the entire relationship.”

As part of her order, Kalemkiarian ruled Ruiz must stay 100 yards away from Lemus, her home, her job, and her vehicle. She also ordered Ruiz to have no guns … and to take a 12-week anger management program.
