Washington state: How do I sue someone for persecution?
Hello. My ex wife has taken it upon her to destroy me. We are going through a fierce custody battle and she has gotten a protection order agianst me under false allegations.
My point is that she has damaged my reputation by accusing me of child abuse (without specifying) claiming that I am a criminal, a thug, a violent person, a mentally disturbed person, etc..
Then she tried 5 times to get me criminally convicted for alleged protection order violations. 3 police reports were so reidiculous even her police officer friend could not find probable cause. the other 2 charges went to court but they will dismissed because one is false (the protection order was no longer active but she lied to the cop) and the other one is ridiculous.
She has also disseminated a false, threatening document to the community claiming I wrote it and sent it to her. I live a life now where I hide behind cars on the street if I see someone I know fearing they might tell her I talked to them and then she will try again to file a false protection order.
As a consequence of her actions I had a bad position in family court, I am looked at as a criminal in criminal court already, some of my friends in the community has turned away from me. Her lies and accusation are now part of a public record which everybody can look up and I have spent an extrodinary amount to defend myself against false charges.
Besides the damages described, my main motivation in filing this suit is to get her to stop. If there are consequences for her she will probably stop.
I feel persecuted, harried, insulted, my reputation has suffered and worst, my time with my son has been limited (family court case I am appealing to).
My questions is if there is a motions I can file that combines, damage of reputation, slander and persecution. Which court would I file it in and is there a form or do I start from scratch writing the motion (an attorney is out of the question but I am good with legal stuff)?
Should I ask for money damages or what?
Thank you kindly
