My question involves restraining orders in the State of: CA
So, the harassment began sometime in January with my boyfriends ex girlfriend chasing me down the street. She then showed up to his home on multiple occassions (3x) and then my house on multiple occassions (3x) threatening me with physical harm.
I made a naive mistake and did not file any police reports because I thought that she would simply stop. Needless to say by April, she still was harassing me and coming to my house threatening me and my son. I was scared to even go outside in fear she will be there trying to jump me with her friends. She was also posting pictures and talking crap about me all over facebook, which just shows where her mental state is at. I finally received a TRO and served her with the papers.
She has been harassing my boyfriend for years and he has never done anything about it, but I refuse to sit here and allow her to threaten me and my son and my home, but noone (including two witnesses) will speak up for me in court & my boyfriend is in jail, so I have no proof per se other than my word.
I am scared that if I do not get this order, something will happen, but there is no one supporting me doing this at all.
I'm confused and have court this Tuesday. I am just wondering how I should handle this with no support from anyone. Will my word be enough, in combination with facebook postings showing cyber-harassment as well?
