Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California

Terror of a tenant
May 1st I served a 30 day notice to terminate tenancy to a roomer in my residence. She ignored this and on the 1st of June my girlfriend (of 5 years off and on) moved in. Apparently the tenant had been recording my private phonecalls for some time and was awarded a restraing order against my girlfriend based on a flippant remark made between my gf and I (ex. "I'll just kill her if she tries it again..or I'll kick her ass if she does that"), effectively evicting my girlfriend. Never was there a direct threat or display of violence enacted or implied, we are merely frustrated and weary. I have since had the tenant served with eviction papers(she is 4 months delinquent on rent), but I am afraid to spend any real amount of time at home. What are my rights as the owner of the home being restricted (by the restraining order) and in regards to my privacy issues(recorded phonecalls,stolen personal items,stalking me, return calling people that call me;ie *69)? Any help would be appreciated...

Re: Terror of a tenant

Several of the things you mentioned are criminal such as recording phone calls. You should file a criminal complaint asap and continue the eviction.
