NEW ORLEANS - The Attorney General's office confirms that it is looking into
a sexual assault allegation against St. Bernard Parish President David
Peralta.

Court documents filed Friday in Orleans Civil District Court showed that
Peralta's wife is asking for a restraining order against him stemming from
the alleged incident that happened last October.
According to the documents, the petition for protection from abuse stems
from an alleged sexual assault incident that happened in the couple's Meraux
home.

His wife is asking the court for a temporary restraining order against
Peralta.

A court hearing is scheduled for early February.
Eyewitness News spoke with Peralta who said he was unaware of the order
filed against him, but he said he filed for divorce last month.
