How have courts interpreted the words "stalking" and "harassment" in the context of a restraining order?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Littman, A143133 (Cal. App. 2016):

One of the reasons for the extensive excerpts quoted above was to establish the absence of the words "stalking," "harassment," "legitimate purpose," "course of conduct," or "section 646.9," which calls into question whether "[t]he substance, purpose, and relevance of the excluded evidence was made known to the court," thus preserving the issue for review. (Evid. Code, 354, subd. (a); People v. Ervine (2009) 47 Cal.4th 745, 783.)
