Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in Texas

HARRASSED ME AND WALKED AWAY!!!

I took to small claims ($200.00.-)a CONTRACTOR of mine (I own a cleaning business) because this person called my cellphone business 63 times in a row during a period of 2 and half hour which resultted on: clogging up my line (for me to take care of my other customers calling during the busiest season (Jul-Aug) and MORE important: I had to up-grade my plan w/my cellph company because of the excess of my min plan. Now I have a 1 year contract for 22$ more everymonth than before. She called me this much to inquire AGAIN about her check which I mailed it on a FRI (as stipulated on contract) and she became crazy on the next TUE (3 days later) to question about it since she didn't get it yet AND I ANSWERED that I mailed and she should get it in any moment. No, she starting calling me and when I answered each time she hungs up. Why I answered you will think: it is because if I let my cellph ring (this case her) and my CUSTOMERS would call at the same moment, for my customers will go automatically to my voice mail (which I KNOW for experience THEY will go to another provider right away IF not answered) so, by answering to this stalker at least I could hear perhaps a "waiting call" from my customers. I took proof of my cellph bill -how she rang up my min- I also called the police after 2 and half hour of her calling me that TUE and ONLY then after police called her, she stoped calling me. She told the judge "she was desperate" that's why she called me that much and "she should'nt pay nothing". She also brought "as evidence" the envelop where her check was mailed (BUT that litle print date on envelope from the Post Office is JUST a date when they PROCESS, it doesn't mean it is the DATE WHEN you sent) For me, it wouldn't matter WHEN she got her check, it is the FACT of how she caused me loss of money and I should be entitled to since SHE WAS HARRASSING ME AND ALSO NO DEBT COLLECTOR SHOULD CALL THAT MUCH EITHER. The Judge here didn't see it that way, I guess, she didn't say WHY just found the case for the defendant. Pls, Judge Mathis: do you also think I didn't have a case? IT IS UNBELIAVABLE FOR ME TO THINK THAT SOMEONE CAN CALL 63 TIMES AND WALK AWAY. Thanks for your input. Jenny

If you were in Justice Court, you have ten days to file an appeal (and take it to County Court at Law). You should consider doing so.
