L. H.-S. v. N. B.

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of a civil protection order because the governing stalking statute requires both the applicant's actual fear for personal safety and the objective reasonableness of that fear. The trial court reasonably found that the applicant did not actually fear for her safety based on her conduct and communications surrounding the threatening messages, and it correctly excluded marginally relevant evidence. The court also declined to review the applicant's unpreserved equal protection claim because the record contained no evidence of disparate impact.
