A 52-year-old man was arrested at the Broward County Courthouse on Monday after he allegedly pointed his cellphone at an attorney and kept recording him even after deputies told him to move along. Bradley Robert Goldberg now faces a charge of violating an injunction for protection against stalking, and a judge has ordered him to stay away from the attorney entirely while the case proceeds.
According to a WSVN report citing the Broward Sheriff's Office arrest report, Goldberg approached a security desk with his cellphone pointed toward the attorney. When deputies directed him to the courthouse's third floor to handle his own business, he instead went to a second-floor area overlooking the security desk and continued recording the attorney, investigators said.
The attorney, who was waiting to speak with a detective at the time, told a deputy he had an active injunction for protection against stalking against Goldberg. He told investigators he had represented Goldberg's ex-wife and recognized Goldberg from previous face-to-face interactions. The court was told that the ex-wife, a member of The Florida Bar, had been represented by the attorney in a battery case against Goldberg.
Injunction Barred Harassment and Contact
The stalking injunction prohibits Goldberg from harassing, following, interfering with or stalking the attorney, and it requires him to stay away from the attorney's home and workplace, among other locations, the report notes. Goldberg was served with that injunction on September 17, 2025.
At Tuesday's bond hearing, separate from the courthouse incident itself, the court heard allegations that Goldberg had harassed the attorney for two years, threatened him, found his home address and used a YouTube channel to post allegations against him. Those details were presented as allegations at the hearing rather than established findings.
Bond Set at $30,000 With No-Contact Order
A judge set Goldberg's bond at $30,000 and ordered him to have no contact with the attorney, along with Level 2 pretrial supervision. The same report notes that Goldberg also has a bond hold in Seminole County.
Under Florida Statutes, Section 784.0487, a willful violation of a stalking injunction through specified acts, including stalking or communicating with the petitioner, is classified as a first-degree misdemeanor.
The same statute lays out strict timelines for how such cases move forward. Local law enforcement must complete its investigation and forward a report to the state attorney no later than 20 days after receiving the initial report, and the state attorney then has 30 working days to decide whether to file criminal charges, seek criminal contempt, pursue both, or take another specified action.
