Jennifer Garner has obtained a court order against a stalker.

The pregnant actress, 36, feels Steven Burky is threatening her family, according to court papers TMZ.com obtained.

"Mr. Burky has been stalking and harassing me," sending "packages and letters containing delusional and paranoid thoughts and following me around the country," the papers say.

Garner claims Burky - who is currently being held in a mental hospital per a court order - has been harassing her since 2002, but within the past year "his obsessive and harassing behavior has escalated to the point of becoming dangerous and threatening."

Burky once visited Garner's home and said, "God has sent him a vision of her being persecuted in some manner that may result in her death."

"I am currently pregnant and fear for the safety of my second child once born," Garner writes in the court order. She is also mother to two-year-old Violet with husband Ben Affleck.

A judge issued a temporary restraining order earlier this month against Burky, who writes a blog called Satanic Panic that covers topics like human sacrifices.

A hearing will be held Thursday to make the restraining order permanent. The LAPD is also investigating the case, according to TMZ.com.
