Shelbyville, KY asked in Criminal Law, Civil Litigation, Civil Rights and Domestic Violence for Kentucky

Q: Can I file harrassment charges after 2 epos we're filed on me , both dissmissed for lack of evidence ?

The petitioner and I were never in a relationship. In court

he accused me of being the reason he nearly lost custody of his son, and for him being kicked out of his residence claiming I got his girlfriend to kick him out . It wasn't until after the first case that I found out his ex had won a permanent dvo against him which he failed to mention in court against me . His ex's dvo is the cause of what he has erroneously claimed against me . Both his dvo attempts against me were dissmissed due to a lack of evidence against me . He admitted coming to my residence both times threatening to have me arrested. He has since filed 10 police reports against me, trying to have me arrested for defending myself to his impossible endless accusation. All of this has been in court in louisville. He has harrassed me with police and the courts. His accusation is the harrassment . Can I file for harrasment and where ?
