Bryce Hall barred from seeing former girlfriend until January 2027 while facing charges
Social media personality Bryce Hall has been ordered not to see his former girlfriend, Mika Lafuente, through January 2027 while he faces domestic violence charges in Las Vegas. The order follows allegations that he physically forced her out of his home during a dispute, allegations his lawyer contests.
Police say Lafuente returned to their former shared home on 27 July to collect belongings and went back inside for a Roomba vacuum. Witnesses reportedly said Hall took her towards the front door and threw her onto landscaping rocks, causing minor scratches; an audio recording was also obtained by police. Hall faces one felony coercion charge and one misdemeanour domestic battery charge, and is due back in court on 1 December. His lawyer says Lafuente was trespassing and refused to leave.

Bryce Hall is a social media personality who has also appeared in boxing events. Mika Lafuente, also known for her online presence, was his girlfriend; reports say they had shared a home in Las Vegas.
In Nevada, coercion and domestic battery are criminal charges that can be heard in court, and a person charged is not thereby found guilty. The case centres on a dispute when Lafuente went to the home to collect belongings: police describe her being physically forced out, while Hall’s lawyer disputes that account and says she was trespassing. The charges matter because they could lead to criminal penalties if proved.
Both sides, in good faith
The strongest fair case each way — we don't pick a winner.
The case for
A no-contact order can protect Lafuente from further confrontation while the allegations are investigated, particularly given the reported account of physical force and the pending domestic violence charges. Keeping the restriction in place until January 2027 may also reduce the risk of renewed conflict and give the court time to assess the case.
The case against
Hall’s lawyer disputes the allegations and says Lafuente was trespassing and refused to leave, so the court has not yet resolved what happened. A restriction lasting until January 2027 could be seen as a significant limit on Hall’s freedom before a finding of guilt; on this view, safeguards should be proportionate and reviewed as the case proceeds.
