Owner Claims “Harassment” From Board Member
Q: Can a condominium board member show up at my home and harass me? (K.W., via e-mail)
A: “Harassment” in the legal sense is defined in Section 784.048 of the Florida Statutes to include engaging in a course of conduct directed at a specific person that causes substantial emotional distress and serves no legitimate purpose. Such behavior could also qualify as “stalking” if it is willful, malicious, and repeated. Section 810.15 of the Florida Statutes also makes it unlawful to picket or protest at someone’s dwelling with the intent to harass or disturb them.
