Judge Grants Restraining Order Against Rep. Cory Mills in Ex-Girlfriend Case

The ruling followed testimony that the congressman’s messages caused substantial emotional distress.

Overview

  • Circuit Judge Fred Koberlein Jr. barred Mills from contacting Lindsey Langston, referencing her on social media, or coming within 500 feet of listed locations through Jan. 1, 2026.
  • The court found Langston credible and described Mills’s testimony as largely untruthful or incomprehensible.
  • Langston alleged threats to release intimate images and to confront future partners, with texts including “Strap up cowboy” and “I can send him a few videos of you as well.”
  • The order says that after the August filing, Mills used another girlfriend’s phone and a congressional staffer to reach Langston and her family.
  • The Florida Department of Law Enforcement is reviewing the case with no criminal charges filed, and Mills denies wrongdoing as false or politically motivated, while a separate D.C. allegation from February was later recanted.
