Plain-language rule

Stalking requires a willful or malicious course of conduct directed at a victim that would cause the specified fear or intimidation in a reasonable person and actually causes that victim to feel it.

Limits to check

The section defines a course of conduct as two or more acts and has separate aggravated, age-related, electronic, and repeat-offense branches.
The section also links conviction findings to firearm restrictions and preserves other remedies.

Do not assume

Do not treat one isolated act as the complete statutory course of conduct without checking the section.
Do not assume every electronic communication satisfies the statutory definitions or lacks a protected-activity issue.
