What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Ohio
I was recently subpoenaed as a witness in a child custody case. We were in court for 2 days when the parties involved finally reached a mutual decision without going to trial. Once they reached a decision I no longer had to testify but the character reference letter had already been submitted to the court and the other party had access to it along with my home address. This individual has a history of menacing and abuse to the other parent however she never followed through on any of the charges. Now that the proceedings are over he has made contact with both myself and my husband through social media and I am sure he is attempting to intimidate me, as we have never been friendly. Although he has not made any threats, can this method of contact be considered intimidation of a witness or intimidation at all?
