Colton v. Knudsen CA3
Defendant Jillian Knudsen appeals from the trial court’s order issuing a civil harassment restraining order against her. Both defendant and plaintiff Maureen Colton, neighbors sharing a private access road, obtained mutual restraining orders after a lengthy history of harassing one another and filing various legal actions against one another over use of the road.
On appeal, defendant contends (1) the trial court erred in considering the June 1, 2011, incident, raised during a previous restraining order application, as part of the alleged course of harassing conduct in violation of the doctrine of res judicata, and (2) the trial court abused its discretion in issuing a restraining order under Code of Civil Procedure section 527.6 rather than applying “normal injunctive procedures.”
We affirm.
