Gorgeous model Yvette Monet has requested and been granted a temporary restraining order granted against her unstable former boyfriend ... Verne Troyer.

Monet says she used to date Troyer but that they broke up months ago. She states that she believes he owns a gun and that she currently fears for her life.
