Most of the documents in the original proceedings in criminal court before Miami-Dade County Court Judge Luise Krieger Martin have been redacted, but an appellate ruling paints a grim picture about the interaction among a group of South Florida attorneys.

The case involves allegations of stalking against Fort Lauderdale attorney Jose P. Font of Font & Nelson, brought by Miami litigator Brandy E. Raulerson of Barnard Law Offices. It raises questions about unprofessional conduct versus harassment, credible threats, litigation privilege and legal limits for protecting alleged victims.
