Q: Can someone be on public property & take pictures or video of someone's house or people going in and out?
Regarding a parent that has joint custody currently, due to using slander, libel and perjury in court(with evidence of such obtained after a final order was entered). This parent has Been involved with Child Protective Services and was substantiated as the abuser regarding physical abuse and neglect of the infant child. This parent had a lawyer, whereas the other parent did not, due to financial limitations. The other parent was also a victim of domestic violence by this parent. This parent constantly continously harasses, bullies, and refuses to cooperate or co parent with the other parent. This parent also uses parental alienation regarding the other parent by keeping the child from the other parent at certain times, not notifying the other parent of important things. As well as threatening to take the other parent to court to take time with the child away when they get upset, as well as saying in front of the child that the other parent doesn't care about /love/or abandoned them.
A: While in public, you can generally take pictures of anyone or anything you can lawfully see. However, in a family court context, introduction into evidence of such pictures - done wrong - has a way of backfiring. You should consult with a lawyer.
