Petroff v. Lunetta
Defendant and appellant Richard F. Lunetta appeals from civil harassment restraining orders entered against him in two cases which have been consolidated on appeal. Lunetta contends the trial court erred in (1) denying Lunetta the right to cross-examine witnesses (2) proceeding on plaintiffs applications for restraining orders after ruling that the identical allegations of 30 or so related applications failed to give Lunetta fair and adequate notice of the claims against him; (3) hearing and deciding, over Lunettas objection, supplemental claims and allegations made in plaintiffs hearing briefs that had not been served on Lunetta; and (4) enjoining Lunetta from attending meetings of a homeowners association because the order is aimed at preventing disruption of the meetings rather than at protecting an individual from personal harassment. The trial court is directed to modify the injunction with respect to the Petroffs consistent with this opinion. As so modified, the injunction with respect to the Petroffs is affirmed.
