| Here's an interesting case, where
a Vindictive X-spouse harasses the other, using Restraining Orders.
This is an action ... correct
errors of law and abuses of discretion in the proceedings of the case
It arose after an estranged wife,
Cobaka Quill ["Cobaka"], domiciled in Maine, was granted a Maine restraining
order against her husband, John Quill. ["Quill"]. He had been given
exclusive use and possession of the couple’s Boston condominium and had been
ordered by the family court to make it available for an inspection by
Cobaka’s appraiser. Without notice to her husband, Cobaka showed up at the
condominium for the inspection and caused her attorney to place a 911
cell-phone call and say that her husband would not leave the property.
Quill, on the other hand, complied with the family court order and made the
condominium available to the appraisers. To do otherwise would have put him
in contempt of that Massachusetts order.
He had been facing a Hobson’s
choice – to obey the Massachusetts order or despite the lack of
notice from his wife about her intended presence and her surprise
appearance, to disobey the Massachusetts order and obey, instead, the Maine
order flashed in front of him that day\1/
by Cobaka’s attorney.
After all, immediately upon the
arrival of her attorney at the condominium, where Quill was waiting, she
handed him the Maine order and instructed her attorney to call the Boston
Police Department for the alleged violation of the Maine order. From that
act alone, this court can conclude that she purposely did not want to notify
him so that she could entrap him into violating the Maine order
the estranged wife arrived
unexpectedly – i.e., without notice to Quill or his counsel – on the scene
where he had been ordered by the court to be. Clearly Cobaka arrived in
Boston with the intention setting Quill up for a bogus claim of a violation.
The Boston Police Department should have charged her and her lawyer – who
made the 911 call on her behalf on the site -- with false reporting to the
police, a criminal infraction
In August 2000, she wrote Quill [Exh.
F, Cobaka’s handwritten note to Quill , marked as Trial Exhibit 75 on 5
September 2002] andasked him to join her in Maine for a Kindergarten
Orientation meeting at the children’s school. Later she had her
then-attorney write that he sat too close to her in the auditorium.
In October of 2000, Cobaka
left with both his aunt and a mutual friend a message for Quill to go to
Maine, pick the kids up at school, and plan on spending the weekend with
them in Maine.
After he got to Maine to
pick up the children up at school, he learned that she had alerted the
school to call her when he arrived. Upon learning that he was at the school,
Cobaka then proceeded to call the police and report he was stalking her. [Exh.
G, Cumberland Police Department incident report.]
Charges were never brought forward
in Maine.
Quill contends that Cobaka has
been using the abuse-prevention laws in both Maine and Massachusetts as a
weapon, a tool, to achieve a collateral advantage in their divorce action,
in which they both seek custody of the children.\5/

In December 2000, Cobaka, who very often did not comply with
order regarding where and when the children should be picked up and
delivered, told a policeman that if Quill did not deliver the children in
Maine, he’d be in contempt. This was untrue. The children were to be
delivered at the Merrimack, MA, police station, not in Maine. The police
officer then testified and impeached her.
Quill
believes that the court was silent about this issue because the court never
anticipated Cobaka accusing him of violating the Maine order while simply
making the condo available for inspection.
Given the number of people who would be present, any
fear by Cobaka would be conjured up and be an unreasonable fear.
the
assistant district attorney argued that Cobaka was harassed by Quill when
she saw him with a videocamera.
