Dolly Parton's nephew pushes back on restraining order filed against him

Bryan Seaver, nephew and former security head for the late Dolly Parton, has filed a court response to a temporary restraining order issued against him by She’s Alive LLC, the entity managing Parton's estate. The estate, overseen by Parton's manager Danny Nozell, alleges Seaver made terroristic threats involving military-grade weaponry to intimidate business partners. Seaver contends his profane text messages were private exchanges between friends taken out of context during a dispute over approximately $251,000 in unpaid security invoices. While the estate claims Seaver’s behavior is dangerous, Seaver argues the restraining order is overly broad, potentially barring him from contacting his own relatives who work for the estate.
