Hyland also stated in the documents that Prokop threated that she would never see her dog again, hence her reasoning behind getting a TRO that also protected her dog.

At the time, Lee A. Sherman, Hyland's attorney, released the following statement to E! News on behalf of her rep:

"On September 19, 2014, Ms. Hyland obtained a Domestic Violence Temporary Restraining Order against Matthew Prokop. The documents filed speak for themselves. Out of respect for the court, the process and all parties, I have advised Ms. Hyland not to comment on the matter. We request that you respect the parties' privacy during this time."
