Re: Email Threats From Boss
It is a misdemeanor punishable by a fine or up to 1 year in jail to use email to harass someone. This requires the recipient, upon receipt of such an email, to send a reasonable warning or request to stop the harassment. If the behavior continues, the sender is in violation.
