Question: How can I legally respond to a friend who has taken me to Small Claims Court over a loan and is also defaming me on social media?
Answer: In a case involving defamation and harassment, the legal response included sending a cease and desist letter to the individual making defamatory statements. This letter would demand the removal of all defamatory posts and cease further defamatory actions. If you are in small claims for a loan, you may file a response.
