Re: After Divorce.

TRO is the way to go. Circling your car with a video camera can fall into the category of harassment or violation of privacy ("intrusion upon seclusion") and can even get into the territory of assault if the ex is really aggressive with the camera. Likewise, stopping by your house to take pictures is not appropriate behavior. I recommend asking the Court for a protective order specifically prohibiting this sort of conduct. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
