[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, what jurisdiction are you in?  Often times a victim of domestic violence can show a landlord a restraining order and the landlord is obliged to end the lease and let the victim move out without seizing the deposit as rent forgone.  But, check your jurisdiction.

I would be concerned that the reality of your situation is that a neighbor who chooses to violate the restraining order can move to harm you in less time than it will take the police to respond to a 911 call.  RN, he's just talking to you, but it's entirely unpredictable whether one day he'll just show up with a gun.

Read up on the Violence Against Women Act [VAWA].

If you are renting, your landlord is obligated to allow you to move to another unit of your choosing (if that is what you want to do vs. moving altogether.)
Because not everyone wants to move or can afford to upend their homes because of a douchebag ex slash stalker.
At least that way this person does not know where you live at.[/quote]

But he lives in the complex, knows what car she drives and where she works. [/quote]
