When does defamation of character become illegal?

0

If what is said or written about you is the truth, or if it is believed to be the truth, it is not defamation of character. Defamation of character is not a crime. It is a civil tort. If someone is spreading untruths about you, you could sue in civil court to recoup any pecuniary damages that it may have caused you.
