Blac Chyna says Rob Kardashian hit her in the thigh earlier this year, knocking her down and leaving her bruised.
Chyna, whose real name is Angela White, says in court documents filed Monday that she had trouble walking after Kardashian hit her during an argument on April 17.
Chyna says she is afraid to be around her former fiancé, with whom she shares an infant daughter.
A judge granted a temporary restraining order on Monday, barring Kardashian from contacting Chyna or coming within 100 yards of her home, car and workplace. Kardashian is also prohibited from posting any photos online of Chyna or their daughter.
The restraining order will remain in place until an Aug. 8 hearing.
