I have mentioned before that I am in federal court defending myself (pro se) against charges of defamation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, blah, blah... against a sociopathic ex-brother in law who is an attorney. My sister is a co-defendant.
I have now been sued individually in local California court, with essentially a refiling of the same charges, with a bunch of other wild accusations tacked on.
HOWEVER, in this initial complaint (which is 43 pages long), he has clearly indicated (which is obviously pretty stupid) that he has been eavesdropping and recording conversations between my sister and myself during the federal trial and is attempting to use this material as part of his claims. He has also indicated that he has been intercepting e-mails, as well. There are multiple felonies -- I know this, and the statutes that have been violated, etc.
I now need to file a motion in federal court, since his illegal and criminal motions are clearly going to prejudice the proceedings. I am thinking that an ex-parte motion might be appropriate, since it would be expedited. I also wish to request sanctions, including dismissal with prejudice. Any thoughts on what approach toward the motion would be most appropriate?
