Dolly Parton's Manager Seeks Restraining Order Against Fired Nephew Over Threats

Dolly Parton's longtime manager has initiated legal proceedings to obtain a restraining order against the country music icon's nephew. The nephew, who was recently dismissed from his role as head of security, is accused of engaging in a campaign of coercion, extortion, and violent threats.

According to court documents, the fired nephew allegedly sent "terrorizing" text messages and threatened to "destroy the entire brand." These actions have reportedly caused significant fear among employees and associates connected to Parton's management company and trust. The manager is seeking the restraining order to prevent further harassment and protect the integrity of Parton's professional operations.
