i filed a defamation case because a teacher claimed in front of other parents that I had abused her. subsequently i was excluded from participating in extracurricular groups for parents. the defendant's attorney is asking for sanctions by stating that I made a frivolous claim, and i need to understand the legal definition of "frivolous."
In Kentucky, a frivolous claim is one that:
- Lacks any basis in law or fact.
- Is not supported by a good faith argument for an extension, modification, or reversal of existing law.
- Is intended to harass, cause unnecessary delay, or needlessly increase litigation costs.
Has your case been evaluated by a lawyer to determine if it meets these criteria?
