You bet your money those emails are evidence and if they say what you say they do they show a pattern of behavior and a premeditation. They are just as relevant as the official minutes of the HOA.

If I were you, I would seek out an attorney, have a one hour consultation with him/her, pay their fee and solicit their advice on what to do with the emails. If this case has gone this far it ain't getting thrown out. Based on the little we have heard here I would wager on the homeowner winning. $2,800 in four days seems a tad bit absurd.

I know this is old, but I thought this related to my situation. We are the objects of a personal vendetta. The emotional cost was high so we decided to move. The cost of moving and now trying to sell is also high. That's a heavy financial burden.

We know that there is damning evidence out there, but no one is willing to step forward and testify. One person told us of a slanderous accusation, but is unwilling to put it in writing. Most people do not want to get involved. We know there are secret meetings.

If someone had stepped forward in the beginning and just said something like:

1. You can't prevent people from attending the meetings
2. That's unfair and I disapprove
3. You can't do that. I will protest.

this could have ended much sooner. We are very disappointed that after all the work we did for people, no one was willing to just say, let's follow the rules and be fair. We are also being fined over $2000 for something a previous board approved.

I agree that you should do as you'd want someone else to do if you were the target of a hate campaign.

I agree that you should get an attorney as well.

It's terrible to be the object of such hate because you said the wrong thing or whatever.
