Kismet----

I am being sued for libel and IIED by the attorney who represented my X husband in our family law matters beginning in 2009. In October I was sent a cease and desist letter which I did not respond to.

I was served the complaint dated 12/10/12 on 12/26/12 in which the petitioner, Limpo represented my X, ( was self represented), just before the last hearing for Noble v Noble. 
Limpo is no longer the attorney of record for my x as of 12/26/12.

The basis of his (Limpoi's) suit stems from unfavorable reviews I posted on YELP, which Limpo managed to have removed as well as my account closed and statements that I have written on FB (my personal page which has privacy settings set for friends only) as well as comments that I have written in this blog.
My position is that what I stated in this blog and on my yelp reviews is either my belief, my opinion my thoughts or it is true-and I believe I can establish the validity of any statements that are factual in nature. I have shared my experience via this blog as a matter of social interest for other individuals who are either representing themselves, who are otherwise stuck in a protracted litigation, or who are in a single parenting situation. I have shared information I believe to be educational in nature to help provide a better understanding of  the process as well as the human nature.

I informed Limpo early on I would file a complaint with the bar for what I believe to be unethical conduct, (violations of the California Rules of Professional Conduct). This conduct I speak of ranges from exploitation of his client (my x) to fraud and even forgery. During a contempt motion Limpo filed on me I informed him I would file a malicious prosecution action, (the contempt motion was subsequently dropped). I may have even communicated my thoughts of filing an IIED against him as I found his behavior to be beyond unprofessional --to me as his ‘opponent’ in the courtroom and his conduct is what I think a reasonable person would consider extremely outrageous in representing his client (my x). He was verbally and emotionally abusive to me-and continued until the date of this service-- which I see as an extension of his outrageous behavior which includes his abuse of the family law system and our judicial process in general.
I do not go looking for this trouble, yet I seem to find myself in it.  That is where one with a presumed position of authority takes advantage of others (and/or myself), or said person who holds a position of "authority" is negligent in some fashion that is unconscionable for me and I choose to act, rather than remain silent. I chose to be a part of a solution (or try to) rather than be part of the ongoing problem.
