Kennedy v. Morgan, 221 N.C. App. 219 (Jun. 5, 2012)
The trial judge erred by entering a domestic violence protective order. The defendant’s act of hiring a private investigator service to conduct surveillance to determine if the plaintiff was cohabiting does not constitute harassment. There thus was no act of domestic violence.
