"The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" star Taylor Frankie Paul has filed a petition for a protective order against her ex-boyfriend, Dakota Mortensen.
Paul, 31, submitted the filing in court April 7, per Salt Lake County District Court records reviewed by USA TODAY. The move takes place the same day she and Mortensen, 33, were due for a hearing in the latter's case for a protective order against Paul, according to Variety, People and NBC News.
USA TODAY has reached out to Paul's representative and Mortensen's attorney for comment.
Mortensen was temporarily granted custody of their 2-year-old son as his case moves forward, People reported on March 20.
In her filing, Paul accused Mortensen of a "pattern of abusive conduct and coercive control" during their relationship and alleged several instances of violence against her that resulted in injuries, People reported.
