The law defines “unlawful harassment” as:
- a series of intentional acts by the abuser over a period of time that seriously alarms, annoys, harasses, or harms you without “serving a legitimate or lawful purpose,” and these acts must reasonably cause you to suffer substantial emotional distress; or
对方不能证明你去收拾花园不是serving a legitimate or lawful service。 另外你收拾花园不会引起'substantial emotional distress‘。 大概就是这个思路。
- a single act of violence or a threat of violence directed at you that seriously alarms, annoys, harasses, or harms you without serving a legitimate or lawful purpose, and this single act must reasonably cause you to suffer substantial emotional distress.1
