Lakota School Board Member Darbi Boddy will not be allowed to legally attend any future school board meetings while Board Member Isaac Adi is present, according to a release by the Butler County Sheriff's Office.
This week, a civil protection order was issued against Boddy after a judge ruled on the case between the two board members.
The ruling means Boddy will not be permitted to be within 500 feet of Adi and violating the protection order would result in her arrest.
Following the order, Butler County Prosecutor Mike Gmoser hand-delivered a letter to Sheriff Richard K. Jones saying that comments made through her attorney indicate Boddy does not plan to honor the protection order, which would trigger her immediate arrest if she shows up to a meeting or school building while Adi is there.
Despite the fact that Boddy and Adi work together on the school board, both Sheriff Jones and Gmoser say, "There will be no preferred treatment no matter your elected position, if you violate a civil protection order, you will be arrested on site."
Gmoser says Boddy plans to appeal the ruling but is still not allowed to violate the order during the 10-day appeal period.
Boddy and Adi campaigned together during Lakota's school board race in 2021, but their relationship began to sour once the two began working on the board.

..."On Thursday, Boddy's attorney filed an emergency motion to modify the protection order to allow her to attended the upcoming board meeting.
After Sheriff Jones and Gmoser released their joint statement, Boddy responded on her Facebook calling the allegation that she would ignore the protection order false.
"This allegation was spun in order to smear me," she wrote. Later in the post she said she wishes Adi well and will continue with her duties as a board member.
Lakota's next school board meeting is set for Oct. 2 at 5:30 p.m."
