Dodd was hit with a similar charge when her then-estranged husband Michael filed a restraining order against her in 2014 after a domestic violence dispute.

"Kelly Denise Dodd did willfully and unlawfully inflict corporal injury resulting in a traumatic condition upon Michael Dodd, who was the spouse of the defendant," the court papers read of the July 6, 2014 arrest.

The protective order was terminated on February 4, 2015, and the case was dismissed when she completed 10 alcoholics anonymous meetings and six months of therapy for the arrest.

Dodd was hit with a second restraining order when her then-boyfriend's estranged wife filed.

"Within the last two years, Kelly Dodd on numerous occasions has sent emails and texts to me, which are derogatory in nature, inflammatory and harassing," Dana Caldwell wrote in her declaration. "She attempts to conceal her identity by sending such text messages from the phone of Jeff. She has also sent inappropriate messages from his iPad concealing that it is her."

The case was dismissed on February 18, 2014.
