Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

Harassment

My neighbor hates if anyone is in our backyard roasting marshmellows or just talking. He blows an Air horn at us and calls the Police for minor noise. I understnad if it were late at night & we were loud, but this is 7:00-8:30pm and we are just talking and laughing. We recently remodeled the yard and never went in the yard for 5 years so he is used to thins being super quiet. They are also angry that we have short term renters in the property at times but these are always families only. The property is across the street from the beach.

Now the neighbor drives up and calls us Bad Names even while our young children are with us. Is there anything I can do to stop him? We are afraid of what he will do next.

Keep track of the behaviors, and then file a civil restraining order against him. You are doing absolutely nothing wrong, but his behaviors are very bad. You have a right to enjoy your home, too.

Re: Harassment

Get an inexpensive security video recorder and a couple of micro-cameras from Fry's and set it up so that it is always recording. When something like this happens, save the footage.
