When a Florida stalking injunction is appealed, the appellate court reviews the order for competent, substantial evidence. Stalking is defined under the Florida Statutes as stalking as “willfully, maliciously, and repeatedly follow[ing], harass[ing], or cyberstalk[ing] another person.” Fla. Stat. Chp. 784.048(2). This was an issue in the case Castano v. Vega, 3D25-0275 (Fla. 3d DCA November 19, 2025).

Stalking injunctions in Florida are reserved for victims who can show evidence of substantial emotional distress as a result of the repeated harassment of another person. This was an issue in the case Abercrombie v. Nenneman, 2D2023-2110 (Fla. 2d DCA January 22, 2025).

Florida stalking injunctions are designed to address situations in which a person repeatedly follows, contacts, or harasses another person without any reason to do so, and in doing so causes the victim substantial emotional distress. In a recent appellate case, a mother was accused of stalking her son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter. The case is Savage v. Bustillo, 1D2023-2687 (Fla. 1st DCA December 11, 2024).
