On November 8, 2005, Jordan showed up on the set of My Super Ex Girlfriend and tried to deliver a note to Thurman through an assistant. Jordan showed up at Thurman's house where he rang her doorbell twice a day for about 10 days.

Defense lawyer George Vomvolakis claims Jordan needs to be in psychiatric treatment, not in jail. Vomvolakis says that Jordan has been diagnosed with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.

In February 2005, according to testimony, Jack Jordan sent an email to Robert Thurman saying "Today the center of my forehead is ticking now and then. I feel in love with your daughter Uma."

Uma Thurman's mother Birgitte received a telephone call from Jordan wherein he told her that he believed that he and her daughter were meant to be together. Birgitte Thurman tried to tell Jordan that it was an infatuation and that he was "projecting" his own fantasies into Uma Thurman’s life and it was not reality. Jordan, according to Birgitte Thurman's testimony, responded that there was no meaning for life for him and he would kill himself.
