HOLLYWOOD - Crazed Uma Thurman fan Jack Jordan has been ordered to keep his distance from the Hollywood star for five years following his conviction for stalking and harassing her.
He was arrested outside Thurman's New York home in 2005 after attempting to force his way into her movie trailer, while she was shooting My Super Ex-Girlfriend.
During the week-long trial at New York's Manhattan Supreme Court, Thurman and her parents testified, revealing how Jordan had bombarded them with notes and letters, and threatened to kill himself if her mother and father refused to pass on the messages.
The 37-year-old was found guilty of fourth-degree stalking and one count of second degree aggravated harassment by the jury on May 6.
But Jordan escaped jail time when he was sentenced on Monday--a judge decided instead to simply order him to stay away, and gave him three years' probation.
Jordan was also told to seek outpatient treatment as part of his punishment, according to Web site TMZ.com. He was acquitted on two other aggravated harassment charges.
