She sued, we went to mediation, then court. The judge ruled in our favor, now today the woman started sending emails saying very negative things about the employee who handled the lawsuit, and saying if we dont give her money she will sue again. Is there anything we can do? Can she sue again?

This forum is for general questions and answers. There is no way to tell from your post if someone could sue you or not a second time. At this point you need to consult with an attorney. Generally, someone cannot sue for the same thing twice as long as the case was decided on its merits.... View More

Of course not. I suggest you give the landlord your written itemized figures and ask if you're... View More
