Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Washington
Libel?
I just found a message board in which a woman has said about me
''this woman is crazy'' and ''judge saw thru her lies'' and that I have made ''false allegations'' against her daughter and ''this woman has fooled judges before against us''
These postings were to a church message board that is through the church/private school my daughter used to attend.
this woman's daughter has criminal charges against her in which I'm the victim .
She's apparently been posting for some time and has others posting about me too.
Is this legal? Is it libel? Is there anything I can do to stop the humiliation?

Re: Libel?
Yes, Libel and slander are the spreading of falsehoods that cause injury to the reputation of a person. You can sue her for such. The question is do you have the money to pay a lawyer for such a lawsuit and does she have any money making it worth while to sue her?

Mr. White answered this quite well. Defamation is actionable, but you need to think it through carefully.
