the owner of a mobile home park where I have my fully owned home has a long history of harassment against her tenants. She also "picks on" one person until she gets tired of them. I am now the pickee Her picking always includes the lawn and its state. My lawn is certainly up to par, and above a lot of the others. Her note left on my door was to trim my lawn or else she would hire someone at $60 per hour to do it. The lawn had been mowed the day before. I have numerous pieces of hateful messages from her with threats to act and charge me. Please help me. She is harassing me continuously
Optional Information: Country relating to Question: United States State (if USA): Washington Already Tried: I have tried talking to her. I've called the appropriate state and county agencies for answers ie Insurance Commissioner of Wa, County Planning dept, attorney generals office for answers. I have always gotten a response in my favor, but she persists.
Thank you for your question. I will do my best to assist you with your concerns. If you would like me to clarify my answer, I will be happy to do so.I am very sorry that you are in this situation. Have you filed charges against her with the police, or did you simply contact them for information?
when she wanted to be added as a "named insured" on my homeowners policy, I contacted the Insurance commissioner. No, she can't, and I told her so. Then she told me I needed a permit for the porch on my home. Its a 1973. I called city of Centralia Permits dept, and they laughed. No way were they going to come inspect a 40 year old porch. Now she has singled me out to harass me about my lawn. My exterior is probably the best in the neighborhood, yet she has threatened me three times to send someone over to do it at $60 per hour. Today she said I needed to "trim"
my yard. It had been moved and weed wacked yesterday. Apparently she wanted me to make all the lines of lawn meeting pavement to be perfectly straight, including the 140' which meets a shoulderless two lane road. I took pictures. She has been known to evict people from the park when they own their home. The permit alone is $5000, then you have to get it moved and reset up. Tens of thousands of dollars. she is threatening me with that
Thank you for your follow-up, Terry.This person appears to be a bit obsessive-compulsive and obviously not an easy person to deal with. If she is harassing you without cause, consider sending her a formal certified letter requesting that she Cease and Desist her behavior or you will pursue potential legal grounds. If she refuses to take you seriously, you have two options that you can utilize right away:1. You can contact the police and consider filing for a restraining order against her, so that she does not contact you or get in touch with you because that would violate the order. Should she violate the order once granted, you can contact the police and the police can arrest her. Subsequently the judge can admonish, fine, and even jail her for Contempt of Court order.2. The next step would be to file suit directly against her via your local county court for financial damages on grounds of Harassment, Breach of Contract, and for violating the 'quiet enjoyment' of your premises. You may want to consider retaining counsel to assist you with that manner of suit.Good luck.

If she is the owner of the park, will a restraining order work? Can I get her to give me 48 hours notice before visiting my home? I would like someone to witness these events. I hope the police will take this seriously and give me a limited restraining order. I recognize her need to inspect her park, but she has gone beyond that and told me how to care for my own home. Will the police give me a nonharrassment or restraining order?
Thank you for your follow-up, Terry.A restraining order WILL work--she would not be permitted to contact you, or come close to you. Even an owner of a property can be ejected from it via court order. In terms of giving notice, she is required by law to give you 24 hours notice, no more. The harassment is not something the police do, as I stated that is a civil matter, meaning you would have to sue her yourself for damages.Good luck.Dimitry Esquire41110.0732653588
