Hi there,
Just wondering if someone knows if there is actually something I can do legally in regards to false accusations.
My Partner was forced to go to court to get access to his son. We had trial date set and in the mother's final affidavit released. 1 week prior to trial, she made a false accusation of domestic violence against me (the stepmother) but never reported it or took it further when the so-called incident occurred.
The information detailed of a reported "domestic violence incident witnessed by her" she has no proof, no dates, never reported it to police despite stating she was concerned about the child being around me. The case never made it to trial a week later, she gave into 50/50 at court, an hour before the start of the trial.
She has never had to face responsibility for her actions at any point ( and it has been very messy but won't go into detail.)
Is there anything I can do to hold her accountable for making such derogatory claims?
I have always been so nice, loving and nurturing and always gifted things for special occasions etc. I have been in the relationship for 5yrs.
Any help would be great. I really would at the very least like an admission that the claim was false and apology for the false claims.
Thanks
