My roommate and I were the best friends ever... we moved in together. One day she gets all pissy with me and starts texting m y ex. Which I hadn't spoken to in almost 2 weeks. We both just knew it would never work... and my best friend wasn't ever friends with him. They started bashing me behind my back going back and fourth. Telling each other lies. Well, as we are sitting in our apt and she had just been very ignorant and short with me for about a week. I look over and see she has a text from my boyfriend... and I confronted her, asking her what was going on with her and why was she talking to him... at this point she tells me to off and it is none of my business. And of corse I let her know it was my business. She was my boyfriend and he was my ex that it wasn't her place to be speaking with him. And that I would never do the same to her. (as we both had similar situations in the boyfriend department) she told me to off that she couldn't stand me and that I was a lying backstabbing blah blah blha. And I was very upset... I left the apt and went to a friends and cried all night as she contimnued to text me and say verrrrry hurtful things so I just stopped txting back.
About 4 days later I come home and I had been living in the apt but we were just not speaking at all... and she tells me that I need to get out of the apt. asap. And I was like up no. this is also my apt and I don't have to go anywhere. She then tells me to get rid of my dog or she will do it for me. And I explained to her I would call the cops. And she said just try and prove it was me... she has a very ignorant hateful personality it had just never come out to me before... anyway the next day I am awakend by a cop handing me an order of protection telling me to grab what I need for the next two weeks and I had to leave. She lied on the police report saying that I threatened her and her belongings and was harassing her and everything. All of which I never did.
So question is. I have court today. No lawyer because I didn't do anything wrong but now I am scared I might have needed one. I feel very unprepared to walk into court but I never did andything wrong and I think she just did this because it was the only way she knew she could get me out of the apt.
How do I fix this. And if it goes wrong... what do I do?
Also do I have any rights or a case to sue her... I mean we just moved in that apt I had to pay deposits and lots of start up fees that I am now going to have to pay again. I also wasn't allowed in my home that I was paying for for almost 3 weeks... and it has def takene a toll on my work and school just because it is so upsetting. Please help with any advise you can
