Kathy Griffin’s neighbor has filed a restraining order against her – just weeks after he was caught calling the comedian a ‘bald d**e’ and a ‘c**t’ in a profanity laden rant.
KB Home CEO Jeffrey Mezger was ordered to stay 100 yards away from the comedian and her boyfriend Randy Bick at all times after Griffin was granted a restraining order against him last month.
She claims he’d been throwing trash into her yard, blaring Johnny Cash tunes towards her home and yelling profanities at her.
The latter was caught on Griffin’s security cameras as the CEO was heard yelling that Griffin was a ‘bald d**e’ and a ‘c**t’ after her boyfriend phoned the Los Angeles Police Department to report his grandchildren for being too loud.
Now Mezger has filed his own restraining order in response, which would order Kathy and Randy to stay 100 yards away from him, TMZ reports.

The order will go to court next week.
The filing is the latest in the neighbors’ ongoing, very public feud after Griffin and Bick moved into the area last year.
Logs obtained from the homeowners association show that they filed noise complaints immediately.
Mezger is believed to have told the association that he and his wife don’t host parties often and that their new neighbors ‘need to adapt.’
The couple has called Los Angeles police five times with complaints and have previous recorded instances of the CEO yelling insults at them.

Mezer was recorded on audio obtained by the HuffPost hollering out that Griffin was ‘bald d**e’ and a ‘c**t’ after her boyfriend, Randy Bick, phoned the Los Angeles Police Department to report his grandchildren were being too loud
A spokesperson for the LAPD told HuffPost the incident was a civil matter and would ‘take a while’ to find any record of the call.
Bick added that he called LAPD after hours of excessive noise, some of which did involve children.
While he was speaking with police, Mezger’s rant could be heard on video.
Mezger said: ‘Hey Randy, go f**k yourself. Seriously? You call on my grandkids at 9 o’clock? You’re not even the f*****g owner.
Griffin asked ‘What’s going on?’
The CEO added: ‘Let’s declare war, a*****e, ’cause we got a lot to go for. Let’s bring it on, you b***h.’
Griffin, seemingly confused, said: ‘Randy, what’s happening?’ [cross talk] ‘Randy, what’s happening?’
At this point irate, Mezger concludes: ‘If you’re asking Randy what’s happening, he called the cops on my 5-year-old granddaughter, you f****g c**t. B*****t ― 9 o’clock at night ― oh, this party’s loud, this party’s really happening.
Mezger and his wife live next to Griffin’s $5million home (pictured) in a Los Angeles gated community. During the confrontation, Mezger said: ‘Let’s declare war, a*****e, ’cause we got a lot to go for. Let’s bring it on, you b***h
‘F**k you. I’ve done enough trying to be a nice partner ― f**k you, neighbor. War’s happening. Don’t wait until we’re gonna bring some things on you. Now f**k you.’
Since the recording became public Mezger has had 25 percent of his bonuses cut by KB Home, one of the largest homebuilding companies in the nation.
KB Home said in a regulatory filing that while Mezger has been ‘a great leader,’ his behavior was unacceptable and that he would be fired for any similar incidents in the future, despite his pay cut.
Mezger has been the frontman of the publicly traded company since 2006 and has worked there since 1993, according to his official biography.
Mezger and his wife, Sandra, live in a gated community next to Griffin and Bick.
There has been backlash against the executive since the vulgar, two-minute outburst was first aired by HuffPost.
TV host and financial adviser Suze Orman wrote on Twitter this week, ‘Disgraceful talk from the CEO of KB HOMES. You really want to buy a home from this man? Beyond Disgusting!’
KB Home and Mezger did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
He was paid $9 million last year in salary and stock awards, but he hasn’t received a bonus since 2014. In that year, Mezger received a bonus of $125,000.
KB Home issued an apology on behalf of their chief executive. KB Home has put CEO Jeffrey Mezger on notice following his vulgar rant against comedian Kathy Griffin. Mezger was since put on notice under the company
