Q: What law protects me from invasion of personal information by contacting my employers, family, friends, etc,?
This is a custody case. Supervised visitaion. Modification for termination of supervised visitation has been approved for a hearing. I am the mother. I have to be supervised. My exhusband has been calling previous employers, etc trying to get anything he can to use against me in court. Is this illegal? I would think it would be. There has been a line crossed here and there should be some justification for this.
A: Although, no one likes inquiries into their background, your exhusband has not done anything wrong. If, and I do say if, there has been a violation of your privacy rights, based on the information that you posted, the wrongdoers would be those who provided the information. However, since there is an ongoing case, most, if not all of this information can be obtained by subpoena and depositions.
