Judge Orders Scott Wolf to Help Estranged Wife Retain Lawyer as Protective Order Stands

A ruling on a broader restraining order was delayed because Kelley Wolf appeared in court without legal representation.

Overview

  • At a Sept. 10 Utah hearing, the judge declined to rule on Scott Wolf’s request for a full restraining order due to Kelley Wolf’s lack of counsel.
  • The court directed Scott to fund Kelley’s attorney retainer once she secures new representation, which she must have in place before the late-October hearing.
  • Key terms of the Aug. 28 protective order remain, including a 300‑foot distance requirement and no direct or indirect contact with Scott or the couple’s three children.
  • The judge allowed limited phone communication between the parents in the children’s best interests, with no obligation for either party to respond.
  • Scott retains temporary sole custody, and Kelley faces three misdemeanor counts tied to alleged social‑media disclosures after briefly entering and then leaving rehab.
