What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? New York
Can I sue for emotional damages and defamation?
To keep it simple, what I'm telling you is skin deep, there's so much more to it, but I want to know if I have a case.
For me, however, unfortunately a few months back there was a girl that faked a pregnancy, and wanted me to 'beg her for an abortion' which I ended up doing as if she was doing me a favour. Essentially she had used that as leverage to get me to stay with her for several months. During that time, a supposed friend would message me in the middle of the night from her phone claiming that this girl was getting cardiac arrest. This was happening for about a month almost every night, in which I was put on another anti depressant, because at that point I thought the blood would be in my hands, that her cardiac arrest was my fault (claiming it was a side effect from the abortion pill). A few months later I discovered that it had all been fabricated and I had a mental breakdown. Not to mention the suicidal thoughts. I was also prescribed more ativan and the withdrawal caused some seizures. She had also made claims during the time that I was with her that her friends wanted to run me over, and as of now she's still going to my university and we share a lot of mutual friends, so she still has the potential to be in my life.
Also, in terms of the abortion papers, I did request them and she did refuse to give them to me because it was obviously fabricated. Can I not get a lawyer to force her to cough up the information SHES withholding? Or at least some closure, because I've got none of that. Do I have a case?
