Is it possible to get an injunction against a mass mailer?

4 comments so far


Is it possible to have a court issue a cease-and-desist order against a company that will not stop sending me unwanted mail? Can unwanted mail be harassment? I have sent multiple requests to the company, but they do not even reply. I think that a court order would really make a point.
If so, to which court would I have to go, and how complex is the process (in Indiana)?

    I wish I could say, Yes, sue them - But unfortunately there is nothing you can do EXCEPT CHANGE YOUR MAIL ADDRESS/ Or return mailers postage due -

    It’s probably manageable if the company is in your own area and you know who to serve. If it’s a multi-state business or their agent for service of process is in another state it’s probably much more complicated than would be worth it to you.

    I would return to sender and mark “no longer resides here” every time. Leave a pen in your mailbox so you don’t have to take it home and then back to the mailbox. It is SO annoying!! I **** junk mail too.

    Welcome to the real world, boy how so many of us have gone through this. There is nothing that can be done excpt what the above two have said just keep filing 13 (throwing it in trash) and get over it.
