According to Newsday, his ex-wife, Dina Lohan, had a restraining order against him dating back to 2005.

In June, a judge said Michael Lohan would avoid prosecution on a misdemeanor charge of aggravated harassment if he stayed out of trouble for a year. Lohan denied a claim by prosecutors that he threatened to kill his girlfriend and himself if she left him.

The actress reportedly is estranged from her father.
