Legal Question in Criminal Law in Texas
Yesterday I had a verbal altercation with a neighbor. The neighbor is 18 and and had the police respond to his his house from calls to the police by other neighbors on at least three separate occasions. The house he lives in is is constantly full of young people that are drinking and smoking pot in the front yard. We have counted as many as 20 all in that same age range living in the in the house. There have been large parties and on several occasions, fighting. The past 2 or so weeks the kid that "owns" the house has taken to staring at me. Whenever I come outside this guy just stares intently at me. He doesn't work and we believe he is dealing drugs and a lot of them to afford this neighborhood. Yesterday I asked him if he wanted something of I could help him with something. He told me to get back in my house. I then took pictures of the salver cars that were parked in front of his house and all of the people that were outside with him. I then told if he had a problem that he had an open invitation to talk about whatever his problem was and he said, "no" so I called him a coward. He continued to tell me to, ".get in my house" . My wife called the police and he and all the cars and people that were there left before the police could get there. When they were leaving I yelled at the guy and told him to pack his bags and get lost. I also flipped him off and called him a Fucking Nigger." Bad reaction I know but am I at risk of getting in trouble for that? The police didn't say anything about it when they responded yesterday.

I don't believe that you are in the Dallas / Fort Worth area and therefore, it may not be cost effective for our firm to help you - due to the cost of travel for hearings - but that will be up to you.
However, you may be able to seek the help of a qualified litigation attorney who can file a suit against the person and home owner for harassment and nuisance and you may be able to get a restraining order against him.
You can't get a protective order as you have no familial relationship to the person.
If you are in the Dallas / Fort Worth area, and would like a consultation, please let us know. You can send an email through out website at www.lawyersdallas.com.
