What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state? TX
In short, can a person take legal action against someone who unalwfully recorded and conveyed the contents of a phone conversation in which she was not a party to? If so, what do you do and can it also be considered a civil matter for suit as well? Am I correct in understanding that is a 2nd degree federal felony?
Why do I ask? Well, I don't realy want to get this person in trouble for doing this, I just want them to be aware that what they did is VERY illegal because she is always spouting how righteous and perfect she is and how horrible the other party to the phone conversation is. But before I go spouting my mouth off, I want to make sure I have my facts straight. I researched that this a violation of penal code 16.02 but it doesn't say if the victim should press charges or sue or whatever, etc. Thanks to whoever helps me out!
