What can I do if I am being sued for an accident that I couldn't help?

What does the driver being a "big over 300 pound guy" have to do with the liability analysis in arriving at fault for the accident? The rules of the road require that all motor vehicle operators (1) maintain a safe following distance, (2) operate in control at all times (3) keep a lookout and (4) drive safely under the circumstances. The fact that it was raining and the road surface was more slippery than usual is a circumstance requiring that extra safety precautions, i.e. increasing following distance, be employed. The "stopped short" defense is rarely if ever successful, in view of the above 4 rules of the road. You are liable. Your insurance would defend you and pay up to the policy limit. However, you opted not to have insurance. Therefore, you should take the money that you saved by not having insurance and hire an attorney to defend you and think of a way to minimize your liability exposure. I wish you the best.

Well, I'm afraid I'm not going to be much help. Yes it was an understandable mistake on your part, but it seems to me that the mistake was on your part. Your daughter seems to have some issues if she took it upon herself to hack your phone and use the information to obtain a TRO, and I'd guess that her law guardian is the one calling the shots. Since the "T" in "TRO" stands for "Temporary", it may fall by the wayside, certainly there can be modifications. Your lawyer will have some in-depth work to fight this.

No, if you had an expectation of privacy, once your daughter got a hold of your phone there is no expectation of privacy.
