SANTA ANA, Calif. (CNS)—A judge granted a three-year restraining order on Dec. 23 to keep billionaire “bond king” Bill Gross from harassing his Laguna Beach neighbor by blasting backyard music, in the latest development in a dispute that erupted when the neighbor filed a complaint against Gross for erecting netting around an outdoor art installation that the neighbor said blocked his view.
Orange County Superior Court Judge Kimberly Knill cited the testimony of Gross’ own noise expert in supporting her opinion that the music, such as repeated playing of TV theme show songs like “Gilligan’s Island,” had a traumatizing impact on Mark Towfiq and his wife.
