Q: Peace order was falsely filed on me from ex who is upset that I outed her affair to her new fiancé. What can I do?
My ex fiancé of 5 years decided to walk out one day and get with someone new. After only 4 months, she contacted me and Has been having an affair with me for 8 months. I recently exposed her as she and I both knew I had been keeping tabs on her lies. Now that she’s caught up she claimed she didn’t know I was taking pics and says I’ve been stalking her but texts and photos prove otherwise. Says I was also charged with aggravated assault in 08 which is not true! Furthermore, I want to sue for my engagement ring back as the terms of the engagement were never met! She knew about the pics and me saving messages and I have proof. What can I do about all of this?
A: You need to go to court and fight the accusations. Full stop. Everything else is of secondary importance. You will need to hire an attorney and combat the accusations. Unfortunately, most states do not have a penalty for making false accusations regarding protection orders. But you cannot simply walk into court and exclaim that she is a liar.
