John Cusack has won a restraining order against an obsessed fan.The 'High Fidelity' actor - who did not attend the court hearing in California - filed a lawsuit against 31-year-old Emily Leatherman last month, saying she demonstrated an "unusual interest" in him.The 40-year-old actor claimed she "threatened to commit violence against herself" if the actor did not help her. During her 18-month stalking campaign, homeless Letherman reportedly bombarded the actor with letters and listed his home address as hers.Cusack's court statement read: "The woman is showing unusual interest by stalking, throwing long letters of interest over my fence in bags with rocks and screwdrivers inside, making unannounced visits to offices of people I work with in an attempt to meet with me and listing my address as her own during a recent arrest."Leatherman has been ordered to stay at least 500 feet from Cusack, his home, workplace, car and any company or office where he does business.
