So sue me.

The ex now wants to sue me for slander and libel
He would need to prove that my personal opinions were made with malice in an attempt to harm or defame him.
The 3 posts, (well now 4) that I have written about him, are my personal opinions of my ex husband.
They were never intended to harm or defame him.
This is my personal webspace where I write about my life.
Post #1, I was talking about a letter I received from the state of Maine in regards to him losing his drivers license for failure to pay child support.
This is not slander or libel because it is fact that he does not pay his child support as the letter clearly states.
Post #2 is where I stated an opinion on the recent robbery/theft of something in his band. I stated that it was my gut instinct that it was him. This does not say it was him but says that I think it is him based on information given to me by third parties and my own personal experience of personally knowing him as my ex-spouse and his behaviors as witnessed by me.
And post #3, written last night after receiving falsely spoofed emails from his now current girlfriend, explains to her, in some detail, the facts of my marriage and divorce from him as only I would know them.
He says that his lawyer read my site this morning and that I am indeed breaking the law. He says he wants to sue me.
My response?
Let's roll.
I will be happy to face him in court on this issue and the lack of child support as court ordered in February 1994.
