So I believe all of this applies to me. I'm a single dad. I went to my kids' school to have lunch with my daughter. When I came out, the secretary had my old mugshot maximized on the screen. I just happened to look inside the office on my way out. The principal & ISD asked her why. Her only explanation was "I was being nosey "
They said she wanted to apologize & they said they'll "retrain her"
Sounds like she’s friends with the mom
I'm facing all these I was wrongfully convicted of a crime that involved the other party to make false statements about me "scaring them" they won't admit fault for the car accident they caused so they lied to the police showing half the video. I have been anxious, traumatized and frustrated in which it caused me to contemplate my life and the decisions I made. I was sideswaped and had near death experience, to watch this it has actually helped me build a case against the other party.
Very well explained! I actually have pleaded this cause in an upcoming suit and as a layperson, it is helpful to hear your explanation.
Thank you.
Very Helpful.
Thank you so much
thanks.
THANKU TREMENDOUSLY!!!

Interesting !
Thankz
My attorney, Kevin Little, Atty Amanda Costello, Ben Aston, and CEO knew that I suffered with PTSD-ANXIETY. Because I told them.
Could you expand on this tort in the marital setting in Illinois? Do we have a tort called “rape by deception” or “battery by deception”? Thank you!
My quick situation...My neighbor above me, in a senior apartment..knowingly and willing..on a daily ...for going on four years ..has intentionally and statically prevented my rest and normal peace. Causing me to not get sleep on a daily basis . The result is that I have developed very high blood pressure according to my physician. Also..the apartment directors and manager Refuse to do anything ..told me to wear earplugs....use a white noise machine..call the police..or move.
I enjoyed your video. I am a teacher 1 year from retirement. My son went thru divorce. During divorce process, someone in the wife's deeply evil family (likely her new boyfriend) abused the child and said my son did it. Went thru that process, son didn't see his child for 2 months. Now she has filed another false report against me (the grandfather) and is not allowing me to see the child for 2 months while child services looks into it. She is not following (again) the courts mandated visitation schedule for my son and is causing the child great emotional distress. I also have distress, bad dreams - when this blows over I may not want to touch or be around my grand daughter as much because of the fear of risking my last year of teaching - I have to get to retirement or we lose everything, are homeless, and won't be able to treat my severe stenosis of the neck or wife's lupus without medical coverage. The new false reporting is not difficult to disprove - they aren't very smart, but the allegations are truly awful. We are seeking legal action this summer to get the child out of the emotionally unsafe hands of the mother - get full custody.
Thanks for watching! If you need any further assistance on this matter, please call us at (630)-324-6666 or email info@oflaherty-law.com.
Thank you. Do you practice Fedral court or Iowa?
Can I sue Texas for intentional emotional distress?
Yes. I have a case for this. I have a stalker and they are now breaking into my new business.
"Employer, Attorney, Police officer and Landlord½. And several doctors, dentists, psychiatrists and other helath care employees, social security officials, physiotherapists, the courts ".in positions of power" and responsibility. And "if the defendent has knowledge of a mental or physical condition that would make the plaintiff more susceptible to emotional distress, that knowledge would be taken into considerateion." The US law is sensible, Sir. I wonder whether this is valid in Sweden too?
Oh, wow! My former husband’s horrific physical and mental abuse caused me to developed a fatal health condition. He knows I have it; he knows it’s caused by severe chronic stress, and he knows it’s fatal w/o steroids ...which he knows I can’t take.
I’m 45, and my drs. at the Mayo Clinic have given me no more than 18-24 months to live.
Proving it isn’t an issue nor is proving liable and slander. I hope this qualifies as intentional inflection of emotional abuse as well.

I don't know what your going through but...the abuse and mental stuff...finally made me look this up.
My former boss lunged towards me in front of an HR Director. Yes I was seeing a therapist at the the time. I also reported him for calling me a c***. Harassment to HR Director and whistle-blower from HR website. He retaliated with lies that I was 107 times late for work. Subsequently I filed for FMLA HR Director quit then new one came on board and offered Short term disability for me then retracted over the phone and said I was fired. I dates times and the HR Director as a witness as well as therapist PysD notes to prove emotional distress. Would I have a case?
Thanks for reaching out us. We are unable to advise you online. If you give us a call at (630)324-6666 or email us at info@oflaherty-law.com, a member of our team will get in touch with you to discuss further.
There is always the tactic of never allowing you to see a therapist. Yes, that's a real thing that's utilized in organized stalking/harassment. Oh, there's also the blacklisting for legal counsel which they do so that the potential whistleblower is unable to make allegations against the offending party. Yes, the legal industry is well aware of it and is complicit. Is that even a question?
I think if it's organized it's even worst. You'll be shocked at what people will do if they don't like you. Is it legal tho???
Not sure if you're still monitoring this but my question is can you bring an employer for an emotional distress. Secondly do you know of any statutes of limitations? Personally I think that's like saying that someone who got abused but was too scared to come forward until 20 yrs later that they can't do it

What states do these lawsuits succeed the most? How about Pennsylvania?

Can you sue a company under this allegation, if so I can prove every point that was stated.
Thanks for your question, Allen. A company can be sued for IIED if the person committing the wrongful actions was doing so in connection with his or her role in the company. - Kevin O'Flaherty
2:09 (edit) what about a JUDGE! They too are part of this list.
What about abuse in the roll of a girlfriend/boyfriend/step-parent to a child/children?
Hi Andrea, thanks for the question.

If a person gets PTSD from a car accident case does they get more money? Or not
Thanks for your question, Sherrod. PTSD would potentially increase your damages. - Kevin O'Flaherty

My landlord moved me out of a house in bad condition to even worst then lied about the air pollution and his what was in the air as me and my pets health declined I lost my career and losing my health all around the board he blamed my dog for dandruff then redacted that comment as if I don’t have messages to prove it he won’t show me the results of what’s in the air and bought one humidifier now is blaming the humidifer for making the demages all while my health is decline more and more and my pets are so small they can’t handle what’s in there the big three workers are even hiding the results so I will have to sue them too when I asked what to do they told me to look it up so at this rate both are responsible for my loses
Does this have to be a physical action like punching? Or can it be psychological with intent? "Beyond the bounds of decency", does this include sexual oriented harassment of a stranger/roommate?, eg, masturbating in full view and walking around naked, bringing drunk strangers home and leaving them with you, and when ignoring the advances, threatening in writing to call the police on a fabricated charge to get you to either comply with advances and, if not, to sign a legal document that will cause financial ruin? Causing extreme anxiety and loss of productivity? In an apartment lease that cannot be terminated without causing financial harm, severe emotional distress and fear at what they might do next, an inability to sleep and perform at work? In the state of FL? If so, I have an urgent need of a smart and capable lawyer who knows this area of law very well.

Check all of the above
Would a judge refusing to examine evidence that I was telling the truth and not mentally ill. Count as Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress. I was told by one court psychologist that he agreed with the other psychologist that I was mentally ill. I asked him to let me show you the evidence that proves I'm telling the truth. He told me I wasn't allowed to do that. Because the judge made a ruling that I could not introduce evidence that would prove I wasn't mentally ill. The judge didn't want to make his ruling on that evidence and have it used in any future court cases by me.
I asked the psychologist then how do I prove to you I am telling the truth and not mentally ill? The psychologist answered me by telling me, I can't. I was going through a trial where my family was trying to have me committed to a mental hospital. But I wasn't being allowed to prove that I was telling the truth and not mentally ill. I was put in a Catch-22 situation by the judge. And my life has been a living hell for the last 18 years because of this judge's ruling. My first amendment rights were violated by the judge.
