In court papers obtained from Pierce County Superior Court in Washington, defendants Department of Social and Health Services and, Child Study and Treatment Center filed a motion for a protective order against the plaintiff on December 12, 2018.
The defendants filed the motion because the plaintiff requested documents that contains confidential information about non-parties.

The request includes statements, e-mails, investigation notes, medical files, nursing files, social worker files, employee files, administrative files or files held by any investigator, employee or administrator for defendant, voice messages, emails, text messages, photographs and videos.The plaintiff is also asking for potential records regarding “any reports of incidents or security reports regarding Grundhoffer and all documents associated to investigations resulting from those reports.”
The victim asked for records regarding Grundhoffer having potential unprofessional or inappropriate contact with patients or staff while working at Child Study and Treatment Center.
In the court’s response, the protection order was granted.
In regards to Grundhoffer, “Defendant shall produce copies of these files unredacted as to the names and personal information, including medical, psychological, alcohol and chemical dependency treatment, sex offender status and any related CPS referrals or law enforcement contacts of the following individuals.”

“Defendants knew or should have known that Grundhoffer posed a danger to Plaintiff and others at CSTC,” the court papers read. “Plaintiff met Grundhoffer at a time when she was a minor child and vulnerable.”

The Plaintiff alleged she “developed an emotional dependency” on Grundhoffer based on his position of authority and trust. She claimed it was breached when he “pursued a personal and sexual relationship.”
In the Defendant’s answer to the complaint, they admitted the plaintiff met Grundhoffer when she was a minor child, but they were “without knowledge or information sufficient to form a belief as to the truth” of the sexual assault.
Grundhoffer has been listed as a witness in the trial.
Renee, 35, filed for divorce from Grundhoffer on November 30, 2017 after a number of sexting scandals.
Then on December 8, 2017, she filed a request for a domestic violence restraining order against him for her and their son Maverick.

In an August 1st court hearing, a judge granted the restraining order for five years. The case remains ongoing.
