It might actually depend on which state you live in, but where I live, harassment seems to include what you'd expect; bodily harm, provoking a violent response by calling names in public, telephonic or electronic threats. The best advice I've read is to smile through it all and record with a pocket voice or tape recorder and write down all incidents. A cop told me not to call him before trying to work it out myself, so it will look good to the police if you've already taken the neighborly approach before you involve them.
harassment
It depends on state and local law.
Generally, no. If your neighbor is in violation of association guidelines, such as noise rules or pet or parking rules, you may be able to engage the association to resolve the issue. Otherwise, if you believe the harassment is dangerous, you may want to call on local law enforcement. Worst case, you may be able to take your evidence of harassment to an attorney and ask the attorney to write a letter to your neighbor.
Its not considered harassment. Although i came to the conclusion that your neighbor sucks at basketball.(i said that as nice as i could)
yes
Make your hatred of them very clear. If that doesn't work, make them feel awkward. If even that doesn't work, remember that what they are doing constitutes harassment.
Yes this is Harrassment, and just because you are disabled does not mean you are unable to mow your lawn... also it does depend on what your disablement is, Also I would tell your neighbor to mind their own buissness! Hope That Helps.
If you reported a case of cruelty to animals to the SPCA you have only carried out your duty as a citizen and a human being. People are expected to report crimes. I the strict sense of the word it is not harassment.
abuse, neglect, exploitation
You would have to be MUCH more specific or give an example of what YOU believe is harassing activity. (in the US) Freedom of religion is a basic tenet of the Constitution and religion enjoys WIDE protection of the law.
This can mean a number of different things. It could have just been children playing or a neighbor playing a prank. Or it could be a form of harassment, though it would be more likely that you'd find roadkill or dog mess than rocks if harassment was the goal.
No. However, if you can prove that: (a) the allegations were false and (b) the neighbor knew or should reasonably have known that they were false, you may have a civil case for defamation.If you are convicted of an Animal or EPA offense resulting from your neighbor's complaint, this would seriously hinder your ability to seek a civil remedy against your neighbor, since the court would be required to assume the allegations were, in fact, true.To determine your options in dealing with the neighbor, you should consult an Attorney.
