Wishing you the best possible outcome. Meanwhile, take care of yourself and don't forget to pat yourself on the back. You did something that was really hard for you to even attempt and you are stronger because of it. In that sense, you have already won! hugs
That's an unfortunate (but expected) outcome. It's always one small person against 'laws and gibberish'. Most of the time, laws are not even enforced and you have to 'suck it up'. I hope you'll be able to settle this quickly and without spending an incredible stack of money. If it would be me; I would move. I wouldn't take the toll and pay them any cents, not even to defend myself. I salute you for your courage and I think you're doing good by dealing with this motherhugger.
