Legal Question in Technology Law in Alabama
E-mail tampering by spouse
My ex-husband and I were separated for over a year when I learned that he was able to answer the security questions to my personal e-mail account and gain access. I have read that because the e-mails were already read by me that they are not considered to be intercepted and are not protected by Federal Law. Is this correct? Or did he violate Federal Law and/or State Law? Would any of the e-mails now be admissable in a child custody hearing?

Re: E-mail tampering by spouse
He has probably violated your privacy rights and I don't know how he
would explain to the court how he gained access to the emails. But it
is complicated.
