the threat he poses to Yovanna is substantially less, because she lives in a country which a) is not part of the USA or its territories, and b) conducts legal and other official business entirely in Spanish, which pipsqueak here doesn't speak; even if he could find a Dominican solicitor willing to take on idiotic cases from non-Hispanophone foreign clients, he would get absolutely rinsed
and given his fear of flying, and that there are no ferries between the USA and Caribbean islands, there is zero chance of him posing any physical threat - unless he somehow works out how to charter a private boat, which is unlikely in the extreme
plus, Bulgaria uses Cyrillic script, meaning that even if he somehow worked out how to contact the courts, he couldn't even read their responses, never mind understand the language
