The person is my boyfriend's ex's mother and I have found out the department is now going after her, but I want to know where I should go from here to protect myself and my children.

There is nothing for you to do at this time. The department will take care of it. If anything arises in the future, speak to counsel.

You need to talk to an attorney. You need to bring your custody papers with you when you do. You also need to take a copy of this safety plan, as you may have messed up and agreed to the safety plan unwittingly.

What is your economic harm, in this case? Did their claims cost you your job? Or, is it just the fence repair?
Sounds like fence repair, to me. Sue them in small claims court, for the fence costs. The judgement will prove who was telling the truth.

If what is being stated is not truthful, possibly. Simply reporting that the woman talked about you FACING charges is not libelous. Certain mean-spirited people THRIVE off trying to diminish others.

Tell him, in email and text to not contact you further. Then, block his number on your phone.
Then, record any and all communications after that, for police to see later.
Monitor any social media. If he makes false claims about STD, you can sue him.

It sounds like a crime, and possibly is a crime. Various statutes control such harassing behavior, even if it is being done to another party.

It sounds like you have a pre-warrant issuance hearing. Hire a lawyer before the hearing date. If a warrant is issued, you may be sent to jail.

Possibly so, but the circumstances of the event will determine that. For example, if the person claimed being an attorney to convince you to send him/her money to settle a lawsuit or claim, that would likely be something a Prosecutor would want to pursue. Having a recording of the exact statements... View More

I don't see that he has done anything other than lie--may want to keep an eye open for other jobs as he's not doing you any favors.

You would want to consult a member of the Ga.TrialLawyers Assn who handles employment to see what your options are.
There should be some way of clearing this but frankly there aren't.

Contact a member of the Georgia Trial Lawyers Assn who handles libel cases--they give free consultation. As what is being claimed if true wouldn't necessarily be bad--an open records request--then difficult to say if it is libelous. However to the extent there is a "false light"... View More
