Especially when cameras come into play or crimes are even feigned, you are quickly the defendant, and rightly so. After all, there are laws that everyone must abide by, even in the event of a dispute. So what exactly is allowed and what is not?

Filming your own property is allowed

In neighbour disputes, people are quickly inclined to record everything on video. After all, one assumes that this is the way to secure evidence. But filming and taking photos are not always allowed and can infringe the neighbour's rights. The neighbour can defend himself against this by seeking an injunction from a lawyer, but also in court. In the end, you are the one who is in big trouble and the dispute with your neighbour can escalate. However, filming, for example by surveillance cameras or wildlife cameras, is permitted in certain cases. Provided that only one's own property is filmed. However, public roads must not be in the camera's field of vision and driveways shared with neighbours must not be filmed. If, for example, you suspect that your neighbour is graffitiing your front door, stealing mail or throwing things such as rubbish into your garden, then this may be recorded on camera, provided that only your own property is filmed. Such recordings can often be used as evidence in court, for example, if the neighbour is charged with damage to property.

In such cases, filming is permitted even without consent, as long as it is not published. This is because the right to privacy and the right to one's own image then apply, which the neighbour can then take action against. So this should always be taken into account: Never post such recordings on the internet, not even out of the situation in order to finally show it to the hated neighbour!]]> Electronic preservation of evidence in cases of mobbing, neighbour disputes, accidents Wasserfrau https://www.mobbing.net/forum/bullying-problems-with-neighbourhood-cyberbullying/electronic-preservation-of-evidence-in-cases-of-mobbing-neighbour-disputes-accidents/99389-video-and-film-recordings-are-not-always-allowed-in-neighbour-disputes https://www.mobbing.net/forum/bullying-problems-with-neighbourhood-cyberbullying/electronic-preservation-of-evidence-in-cases-of-mobbing-neighbour-disputes-accidents/99197-private-preservation-of-evidence-it-has-been-decided-by-the-courts-that-as-a-matter-of-principle Sun, 04 Jun 2023 10:16:11 GMT Private preservation of evidence It has been decided by the courts that, as a matter of principle, no photograph or video may be taken of a person unless that person expressly consents. In exceptional cases, however, taking photographs and recording videos against the will of the person being filmed is permitted. Anyone who takes a picture or video of a person without permission must know that the person filmed is protected by the right of personality.

Anyone who takes a picture or video of a person without permission must know that the person filmed is protected by the right of personality. This is because it applies that a person must already consent when the picture is taken. However, this right only protects against publication, display and distribution. Nevertheless, in the case of a neighbourhood dispute, this can constitute a violation of the general right of personality. The photos or videos are in someone else's hands and thus the people photographed can no longer control where they end up.

In principle, however, secretly made recordings are not prohibited per se. In principle, secret recordings can only be considered as evidence in court in serious criminal cases. However, this must be examined on a case-by-case basis. In a "harmless" neighbour dispute, the persons involved may not be recorded in private or intimate moments and situations without consent. For example, if the neighbour was filmed in his garden barbecuing, these will not be accepted as evidence in court.

Here it is important to prove and effectively refute accusations with counter-evidence.

Here, bullying victims need to know what evidence is legal and thus recognized in court in the event of a dispute.

Surveillance cameras - important to know

Whether recordings with a surveillance camera are admissible depends on the orientation of the camera, because neighbors must not feel that they are being unlawfully observed. This means that the camera should not cover parts of the neighbor's property or areas of public space, otherwise this will disturb the privacy of others, including non-involved people. Note: Installed but inoperable cameras can put residents under surveillance pressure. Property owners must install the camera in such a way that residents do not feel they are being watched. Otherwise, the court may order the dummy to be removed. Conditionally, bullying victims can film or photograph their neighbors committing the crime. The integration of third parties strengthens the evidence.

Witnesses help in court

Normally, no court recognizes privately collected evidence, at not in such a stressful issue as bullying. Anyone who films or photographs a neighbor with a cell phone during a bullying attack, for example, should involve neutral third parties. Impartial witnesses can credibly corroborate the recordings, allowing the court to recognize them.

Private preservation of evidence may seem a logical step for some people affected by bullying. However, the following will shed light on why this approach is somewhat treacherous and not all good.
Private preservation of evidence usually involves (video) recordings that have been made without the knowledge of the other people involved. This method is often used to catch bullies in the act and record them so that they can prove their accusations later.
The problem is that it is not a private recording in which the person filming is surprised by the bullying attack. Instead, it is often a provoked and fictitious attack that only very weakly reflects reality. For this reason, such recordings are rarely admitted in court; the danger is too great that it is not an accurate representation of the bully.
In addition to the modified form, there are of course also those recordings that are completely fake and are therefore not admitted at all. One should be very careful with this, because it is a criminal offence if one creates such a fake oneself and sells this in court etc. as real evidence.
It is true that bullying is a big problem that affects many people and of course there is the problem of conviction, because one is not always surrounded by people who could be witnesses. For this reason, those affected, in their desperation, resort to other methods such as the private preservation of evidence. However, one should be careful not to put oneself on the same level as the bully or even commit a crime.]]> Electronic preservation of evidence in cases of mobbing, neighbour disputes, accidents Riedel https://www.mobbing.net/forum/bullying-problems-with-neighbourhood-cyberbullying/electronic-preservation-of-evidence-in-cases-of-mobbing-neighbour-disputes-accidents/98986-private-evidence-gathering-for-bullying-and-neighbour-disputes https://www.mobbing.net/forum/bullying-problems-with-neighbourhood-cyberbullying/electronic-preservation-of-evidence-in-cases-of-mobbing-neighbour-disputes-accidents/98976-in-general-it-is-permitted-to-install-a-camera-on-one-s-own-property Thu, 09 Mar 2023 08:33:18 GMT The situation is completely different, however, if the neighbour is filmed with a mobile phone. This is a violation of personal rights. The neighbour may only be filmed with his consent.
The decision is made by the court in each individual case, but the decision is usually made in favour of the involuntarily filmed person. Even if the videos do not end up on the internet, they represent a violation of personal rights.
Neighbourly disputes are no reason to set up a camera. This is only permitted with serious cause, for example if there has been an increase in break-ins. But even then, personal rights must be respected.
The unlawfully filmed person has the right to have the recordings deleted and can also demand this in court. The removal of the camera can also be demanded in court. The filmed person has the right to compensation for damages and, in particularly serious cases, even to compensation for pain and suffering.
Filming is therefore not a legally valid means of documenting a neighbour dispute.]]> Electronic preservation of evidence in cases of mobbing, neighbour disputes, accidents Pantalon https://www.mobbing.net/forum/bullying-problems-with-neighbourhood-cyberbullying/electronic-preservation-of-evidence-in-cases-of-mobbing-neighbour-disputes-accidents/98976-in-general-it-is-permitted-to-install-a-camera-on-one-s-own-property https://www.mobbing.net/forum/bullying-problems-with-neighbourhood-cyberbullying/electronic-preservation-of-evidence-in-cases-of-mobbing-neighbour-disputes-accidents/98973-if-you-are-being-bullied-you-sometimes-want-to-film-what-is-happening-with-a-private-camera Tue, 07 Mar 2023 22:45:25 GMT If you are being bullied, you sometimes want to film what is happening with a private camera. Many people do this in secret - the person being filmed is not aware that he or she is being recorded. At first glance, this approach seems to be the optimal solution to the problem. After all, this is how you secure evidence of the bullying. However, it is not quite that simple. After all, the legal regulations are very strict when it comes to video surveillance in public and private spaces.

However, it is not quite that simple. After all, the legal regulations are very strict when it comes to video surveillance in public and private spaces. Users must bear in mind that video recording interferes with fundamental rights relating to data protection and privacy. Legislation therefore stipulates that filming the other party must be done using the least intrusive means available. It should also be proportionate. A legitimate interest - such as the protection of property - is cited as a prerequisite. So if the bullying involves damage to property or bodily harm, there is nothing to be said against video recording for the time being. This is especially true if the act takes place on one's own property or private living quarters.

However, it is forbidden to point the camera at other people's property. Especially if neighbors feel disturbed by it, you must remove the device or change its orientation. Particular care must be taken with video recordings in the workplace. In this case, recordings are generally prohibited - but if there is more serious bullying, it depends on the individual case. In this case, it is advisable to contact a lawyer.

In principle, those affected by bullying should always seek legal advice. That way, they know what legal steps they can take.]]> Electronic preservation of evidence in cases of mobbing, neighbour disputes, accidents Electro https://www.mobbing.net/forum/bullying-problems-with-neighbourhood-cyberbullying/electronic-preservation-of-evidence-in-cases-of-mobbing-neighbour-disputes-accidents/98973-if-you-are-being-bullied-you-sometimes-want-to-film-what-is-happening-with-a-private-camera https://www.mobbing.net/forum/bullying-problems-with-neighbourhood-cyberbullying/electronic-preservation-of-evidence-in-cases-of-mobbing-neighbour-disputes-accidents/98969-electronic-preservation-of-evidence-in-bullying-or-neighbour-dispute-video-surveillance Tue, 07 Mar 2023 10:51:14 GMT #Electronic preservation of evidence in bullying or neighbour dispute , video surveillance #Electronic preservation of evidence in case of bulying,mobbing, neighbour dispute, theft Video surveillance to secure evidence The private use of electronic means to preserve evidence may be controversial for a variety of reasons.

Video surveillance to secure evidence

The private use of electronic means to preserve evidence may be controversial for a variety of reasons. Ever since Chris Howland and later Kurt Felix, Guido Crantz or Frank Elstner made their pranks with the hidden camera, the question has been discussed whether people may be filmed without their knowledge. In the meantime, surveillance cameras have been installed in almost all banks, shopping centres and public authorities. The private use of cameras to protect against burglaries and robberies has also become commonplace.

Disputes between neighbours usually take place in the garden or at the famous border fence, and cameras in all variations are often involved. The use of electronic aids in one's own flat, house or garden is almost (!) always legally legitimate.

However, using them at work, at school or in public is problematic. The question of the extent to which cameras, microphones or other technical aids can be used should therefore be put to a lawyer before they are used. Even if experts are already warning against a "surveillance culture", in many cases it will be very helpful to use the latest developments in electronics.



With a mini camera, inconspicuously mounted on a window of a pen, under the gutter, or next to a satellite dish, a relatively large area can be monitored.

Simple surveillance cameras are available for as little as 30 to 50 euros. With 15 m cable or a wireless camera ...
