What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Pennsylvania
I have a question on the ability to press charges against me soon to be ex-husband.
When I initially filed for divorce, I didn't tell him much other than I wanted out. We still lived in the house together, and for a time shared bank accounts and the same phone plan. I filed for divorce, and selected to have him served at the home. I was given the contact information of the process server, and we spoke on the phone, and I was to text him when my ex was home and not going anywhere.
However, over the next weeks, it was absolutely impossible to track him down or have him served. Looking back, it was more than coincidence that he would sneak out a few minutes after I texted the server, and would not return for hours. When I finally got the server to the house, he knocked on the door and my ex got up and said "I will get it, it's your process server and he's late". He took the papers and said to the man "I was going to call you at XXXXXX (number) but I figure you were probably driving and didn't want to cause an accident. I would have met you somewhere closer". He even told the man what agency he worked for! I was horrified and scared to death how my ex knew.
In short, I forgot to separate myself from the phone plan, and he had access to the online statements, which update every minute with the numbers I called and texted. My ex saw I called and texted the server's number, and used an online "reverse phone lookup" to get the contact details of the person, which came back to a process server agency. So, my ex would access our phone logs online, and have a real-time window into who I was calling and texting, and would know when I was talking with the server. He even knew who my lawyer was well before I had him served!
After the serving, I spoke with the server, and he said he thought my ex definitely violated stalking and wiretap laws IF he used spyware. But I myself checked our online phone records, and saw my ex could do what he did with just that.
But would doing that constitute wiretapping, stalking, and harassment? We did share the account, but my ex used it for pure pleasure to track me and play around with the server.
