Miles Bridges and his former partner, Mychelle Johnson, are once again embroiled in a deepening legal dispute, as fresh court filings add complexity to a case that has already garnered significant public attention. Days after Bridges secured a temporary restraining order, Johnson formally responded to several allegations made against her, denying claims tied to cyberstalking, harassment, and alleged attempts to damage the Charlotte Hornets forward's vehicle.
Divergent Accounts of the Same Night
The latest court documents present two starkly different versions of the same evening. Bridges accused Johnson of leaving their children with a nanny and showing up at his March 21 game at the Spectrum Center with the intent to tamper with his car. However, Johnson stated that she attended because a friend had an extra ticket and insisted there was no plan to interfere with Bridges or his property. What began as another tense chapter in a difficult relationship has now evolved into a broader courtroom battle involving accusations of intimidation, manipulation, and emotional distress.
Johnson Denies Allegations
According to court documents first obtained by TMZ, Johnson admitted she attended the Hornets game on Bridges' birthday but denied the allegations surrounding her visit. She claimed the ticket came through a friend connected to a player on the opposing team and said she chose not to inform Bridges because 'he does not like her getting involved with other men.' Johnson also disputed claims that she abandoned their four children to attend the game or attempted to damage Bridges' tires. Her attorney, Ginny Conley, strongly rejected the accusations in a court response, stating: 'These allegations are false, without merit, without proof, made up and are designed by the Father and his attorney to harass the Mother with continual multiple frivolous pleadings they know she does not have resources to continue to defend.'
Bridges' Petition and Restraining Order
Bridges' original petition described Johnson's actions as part of a 'deliberate campaign of terror' and accused her of cyberstalking both him and members of his legal team. He further alleged that she impersonated a pregnant woman to contact his attorney and trigger a paternity test request. A judge in Mecklenburg County granted the restraining order earlier this month, ordering Johnson to remain 500 yards away from Bridges, his home, and team facilities.
Expanding Legal Battle
The legal fight has also expanded beyond the restraining order itself. Bridges recently requested a psychological evaluation for Johnson, alleging what court filings described as 'erratic behavior' and an 'obsessive fixation' on his current relationship. Johnson has denied those claims as well. The history between the two continues to shadow every new development. In 2022, Bridges pleaded no contest to a felony domestic violence charge connected to an incident involving Johnson. The NBA later suspended him for 30 games, while Bridges completed counseling, parenting classes, and probation requirements before returning to the court.
