Legal Question in Family Law in New York

Re: Blackmail

If you & your ex perceive there to be a real risk that this other woman will in some way expose negative information about him in ways that would be damaging to him / you / your children *if* the information were "so-exposed" - -

the only real option you have is that your ex put his "better credibility" on the line and go to the police and file a complaint against the other woman alleging blackmail.

Altho' it is possible that the negative information will still come out, at least it will come out in the context of your ex having taken appropriate steps to prevent himself / yourself / his children from becoming victims of someone's criminal act perpetrated against him / you / them. Too, it is probably the only way to try to get a handle on this other woman in terms of being able to stop her from doing the same / similar thing time and time again.

Good luck.
