What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? FL
I have been harassed and cyber-stalked by an ex boyfriend for over 2 years. After SEVEN court appearances (and changes in FL Cyberstalking laws) I finally got a PERMANENT ORDER OF PROTECTION last August (2013). In December he filed a MTD; In January, we had FOUR appearances in front of a judge, and his Motion was DENIED. Now, an March 3, 2014 ..... less than 45 days after the DENIAL ..... he's filed again. I don't get to see on what grounds until I get to court in April.
But my question is basic; how many times/how often can he file a Motion to Dismiss? When I read the FL statutes, it says "The Petitioner or the Respondent can move the court to modify or dissolve an injunction at any time" ...... but isn't what he's doing just another form of harassment? And it's costing the taxpayers $$. If he planned to leave me alone, what difference does a piece of paper make? Fact is, in January when the judge asked him if he was planning to continue this course of conduct, his answer was "if I won't get in trouble...." which is when the judge [finally] DENIED his motion.
The thing is, Cyberstalking is really hard to prove. He hacked my emails (and sent hate mail as if it came from me); he had my banking records forwarded to his brothers address in MI; he contacted the wife of a colleague I haven't worked with for over 25 years, telling her I was her husband's lover in a delusional rant; he's sent packages; he's hacked facebook, linkedin, gmail, Hotmail, yahoo and my cell phone records. It's been 2 years of misery, and I know now that he will NEVER STOP.
Any advise?
