Sarah Palin has won a round in court against the 19-year-old Pennsylvanian who has admitted that he stalked her, as a restraining order against him has been extended for six months:

However, a court magistrate denied requests for protective orders against Shawn Christy of McAdoo filed by Palin's father, Chuck Heath, and her friend Kristan Cole, saying the two failed to take part in Monday's hearing.

Magistrate Jonathon Lack also denied protective-order requests by Heath and Cole against Christy's parents, Craig and Karen Christy, for the same reason. But he told the Christy family that any further contact with Heath or Cole could lead to a restraining order

Judge Lack also issued a restraining order for Gov. Palin against Craig Christy, who allegedly left a number of harassing telephone messages for Palin's parents and contacted Cole's children on Facebook.
