DON CORNELIUS ORDERED TO SURRENDER GUNS: Judge issued request Monday in the wake of spousal battery charges.

(November 18, 2008)

*TMZ.com reported Monday that a judge ordered Don Cornelius to give up all of his guns following Friday's charges in connection with two domestic incidents involving his wife.

"He was also hit with a protective order, limiting contact with his victim to just 'peaceful contact,'" the Web site said.

The former "Soul Train" host was charged with spousal battery, assault with a deadly weapon and dissuading a witness from making a police report. The 72-year-old was arrested and jailed last month after police were called to his Hollywood Hills home following a report of domestic dispute.

He's currently free on $50,000 bail, but faces up to one year in prison for each of the five misdemeanor charges. He's due back in court on Dec. 4.
