LOS ANGELES - Jennifer Love Hewitt has won a restraining order against a 62-year-old man she says has been stalking her.

Court records show a judge in Burbank on Monday granted Hewitt's request for a three-year restraining order against David Nolte. The actress stated in a court petition that Nolte recently sold his home in Colorado and moved to Los Angeles to be closer to Hewitt.

Documents also include dozens of letters allegedly sent by Nolte, describing violent and sexual fantasies involving Hewitt.

The actress wrote that she became more fearful of Nolte after he appeared at her mother's house in late December. Court records do not indicate whether Nolte has an attorney.

Hewitt currently stars on CBS' "The Ghost Whisperer."
