Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Arkansas
Harassment
A letter was sent to my job from an employee of my husbands. Saying things about my husband & other female employees. An in house investigator for the company that he works for compared the hand writing & it was a match. Do I have any grounds for a harassment suit, seeing that it was sent to my place of employment. It caused us to be separated for a few days. Please help.

Re: Harassment
Harrassment is probably not your best option. If you can prove what was said in the letter was untrue and it caused harm or humiliation, you have a better case for slander. That is a written statement that is false, the writer knew was false, and it caused you some harm.
I would have to know more facts to see how strong a case you have.
