It depends in what state you are in.\nHere in Mass you can get a restraining order for someone that is stalking you. And it also depends on what kind of defamation. - Certain kinds of defamation can only be gone after in civil court.

print the e-mail and take it to your local police. they can track the url address to the person . then you can press charges for making death threats via internet. still very much a crime. better to err on the side of caution. he may be just talking crap, but you really don't want to take that kind of chance with your family. good luck, be safe!

Most speech on the Internet is considered free speach.  I have included a link below that will help.  If there is defamation from that speech, then you can sue for damages, but you must have suffered a monitary loss and there must be proof that a certain person was out to harm you with this speech.

She would have grounds to sue you on the grounds of defamation if you follow through.  Instead, take her to small claims court.

Call her and talk to her...if she turns off the phone or yells at you, then I guess you don't need any information.  In the States, we call it "stalking" when you try to spy on people for romantic purposes, and it can get you arrested.

you can fill out a police report.  i've had to do it before.  the officer will come out to your house, and sit down with you, take some notes and contact the person and inform them that there's been a report of harassment filed against them.  \n\nabove all else, i'd completely ignore whoever is sending you these harassing messages.  if you don't feed their need for attention, they'll eventually quit.  or at least, the person did in my case.\n\ngood luck!

Say this to him " If you keep bothering me I WILL GO THE THE PRINCIPLE'S OFFICE AND REPORT YOU AND I WILL NOT HESITATE TO THE POLICE DEPT AND FILE SEXUAL HARASSMENT AND STALKING CHARGES AGAINST AND HAVE YOU ARRESTED !!!!!HAVE A FRIEND OR TWO AROUND AS WITNESS TO WHAT YOU SAID. And if he doesn't heed this warning follow through with what I said. GOOD LUCK AND GOD BLESS YOU

Start with a restraining order. It should have more details.

No. Wouldn't that be infringing on his privacy? IMO, it's a basic form of stalking.

Did it ever occur to you to call the police?  Blackmail is illegal so is harrassment.  Call the police now and talk to them.

"even though I'm not" . . . ?\n\nYou need to look carefully at your actions and what it is that you are doing that would make him feel like you are stalking him.  Following somebody or driving past their work or home over and over again is very much stalking activity.  Repeated phone calls, emails and letters are also stalking behaviors.  If you do not have an ongoing relationship with this person, be careful how you interact with him.\n\nAnd the advice to get a restraining order is not a good idea.  Stalkers are often people looking for control over their victims.  Applying for a restraining order would only look more controlling.\n\nI would suggest that; after evaluating your behavior, you do your best to avoid this person.  You don't have to go out of your way.  After all, you have as much right to go where you want as he does, but if there is a concern, you might want to make sure you're not doing anything to make it worse.

Keep a journal of everythnig he is doing.  Also, check with your local victim/witness advocate's office to see if your state has "stalking notices" that can be served on individuals.

If this person used your real name and/or address, and said malicious untrue things about you, I think you have a pretty good case for defamation (libel). \nI say, go for it.\n\nRead this article for more information:\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libel
