You can file for a civil harassment restraining order. While you personal or physical safety is not in danger, your peace of mind is seriously being harassed. You need an immediate order to stop this. Go to court tomorrow and fill out the civil harassment paperwork that the clerk's office at the courthouse has. They see this type of situation on a daily basis and will give you the forms to complete. You will then see the judge tomorrow and get the order, which will need to be served on this other person as well as the local police for their records. Good luck.
