For the past six years, a messy dispute has been ongoing between Foxygen’s Sam France and his ex-girlfriend Elizabeth le Fey, a former touring member of the band who also makes music under the name Globelamp. The tumultuous relationship between France and le Fey has been documented by both parties in courtrooms, in the press, and on social media, with each accusing the other of abuse. Pitchfork has obtained the public court files in each case, which outline competing allegations of physical violence, threats, and harassment. The accusations range from alleged punches in the face to claims of cyberstalking and a “murder plot.”

Recently, the conflict picked up again in the Los Angeles county courts. In 2014, France was granted a five-year domestic violence prevention restraining order against le Fey. It was renewed this March. Le Fey is currently seeking the same against France, and was recently granted a temporary restraining order in the meantime.

Pitchfork has reached out to representatives for France, who did not comment about the matter on the record prior to deadline.

The relationship between the two musicians began in 2012 after le Fey appeared in the video for “San Francisco,” a song from Foxygen’s 2013 breakout album We Are the 21st Century Ambassadors of Peace & Magic. She joined the band’s touring lineup shortly thereafter as a backup singer and multi-instrumentalist, and went on the road with them in 2012 and early 2013. For a time in 2013, le Fey and France lived together in Olympia, Washington. In July 2013, le Fey wrote a Tumblr post detailing alleged drama within the band, prompting an online backlash complete with disparaging comparisons to Yoko Ono. By the end of October 2013, France and le Fey had parted ways, and both moved back in with their parents in Southern California.

On January 2, 2014, Sam France filed for a domestic violence prevention restraining order against le Fey in Van Nuys Courthouse East in Los Angeles. Le Fey did not retain legal counsel, and represented herself. France was granted the restraining order, which restricted le Fey from coming near him and four of his family members for five years. According to court documents, the court denied France’s request for an order that le Fey not post “any reference” to him on the internet, citing freedom of speech.
