NO HARASSMENT IN THE FIRST OR SECOND DEGREE

FAILED TO SHOW A COURSE OF CONDUCT OR THE COMMISSION OF REPEATED ACTS

After her family offense petition, alleging harassment in the first and second degrees, was dismissed by the New York County Family Court, TS appealed.

On its review of the record, the Appellate Division, Fist Department, noted irregularities with TS’s strangulation and knife related claims.

Among other things, TS didn’t raise the strangulation incident in her papers And when it came to the knife, the AD1 could find “no basis to disturb” the underlying determination that TS hadn’t established that the alleged assailant intended to “‘harass, annoy or alarm’ her.”

Think she was annoyed or alarmed by that?
