    Talk a lot about guns, and then do nothing because he's bound by the same laws as the next person.

          I wouldn't do a thing. I have guns, and I'm the first person they would suspect if the guy had an unfortunate "hunting accident". If your reputation is solid, no amount of investigating is going to hurt you, and once found "innocent" of the charges, you can give an *opinion* that the guy that brought the charges is just angry because he was dismissed due to wrong-doing on his own part that resulted in his termination. It's important that you precede your statement with the words, "In my opinion" to avoid any legal entanglements.

            I have been working for free for a non-profit local weekend school that teaches Chinese language (started 7 years ago). I develop and manage their websites, serve on the board, among other things. The principal in one of the six campuses tried to use school resource to do some improper things. I was vice chairman of the board at the time, I persuaded other board members in the campus to find a new principal, not reappointing him (his term ended this summar and needed to be reappointmented by the board). He took this badly and tried to get revenge on me. He demanded the board to investigate a list of my "wrong doings". While the board is investigating, he published my name and his charges against me to many enrolled families of the school and many other unrelated people via e-mail. Since the board promised him to complete the investigation in two weeks, his action serves no purpose other than damaging my reputation and disrupting my life. I reported his action to the board. However, since he has already been forced out of the school, I doubt the board will/can do anything to him. My question is, should I take legal action against him if he would not apologize and/or would not stop the harassment? Thanks.

              Even if he does apologize, wouldn't it be a good idea to have on record your official, legal reply to his allegations? What's to stop him from coming back in 5 years and claiming that all these allegations were never disputed by you?

              Best wishes, Hans

                      How about an unfortunate gardening accident, maybe ho could accidentally drop his electric hedge trimmer into the ornamental fish pond. No one would suspect you then. :laugh:
