Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Pennsylvania

Is this a defamation situation worthy or legal proceedings?

I've been at my job for 1 1/2 years.

During that time, I've worked with

about 500 clients. To my knowledge,

no one has ever complained about

my service. Recently, a client treated

me poorly. She continued to do so

although I repeatedly asked her to

treat me differently. She became

upset that I refused to take her

abusive behavior and said she'd,

''have me fired.'' She then sent three

separate faxes via our office fax

machine. She was aware that I'm

not an office employee and many

other people would have the

opportunity to view the faxes. The

faxes accused me of ''harrassing and

threatening'' her, which I did not.

She also called me a ''fabricator,''

although I had not lied to her. She

also claimed to have tape recorded

our earlier telephone conversation,

for which she did not have my

permission. Also, she swore to ''have

me fired.''She met with my boss

yesterday, and he told her he would

not be firing me. She

said she ''would not stop until I'm

fired.''

He assures me I won't be fired, so

I'm not worried about this from a

work perspective. However, I work

on commission, and her harrassment

is affecting my job performance. My

boss isn't willing to ban her from our

property.
