Barton's lawyer, Lisa Bloom, shared a picture of herself and her famous client outside the court on Twitter and wrote: "COURT VICTORY today with Mischa Barton,. Distribution of the explicit images banned, ex stays 100 yards away forever. (sic)"
She later added in a statement to People: "Today we have won an important agreement, which permanently blocks the dissemination of these images.
"All explicit photos and videos of Mischa must be handed over to me immediately. Her ex must stay 100 yards away from her today, tomorrow, and forever. And the court will retain jurisdiction over the case in case we need further enforcement."
The lawyer went on to praise Barton for taking action as she wanted to set an example to women everywhere.
She added: "I am proud to declare victory for Mischa. She did this not just for herself, but for all women and girls. Mischa wants everyone to know that we have the right to control our own bodies and decide whether or not to have explicit photos out there for the world to see. If a woman wants to do that, fine. If she doesn't, fine. The choice is hers and hers alone."
Barton had previously claimed in court documents that Zacharias had recorded them having sex, and taken photos of her nude, without her knowledge.
She accused him of trying to sell the tapes for US$500,000.
