Is there a law in California against Cyber Bullying?

My best friends daughter is being Cyber Bullied by a Mother of a girl that is on the same cheer leading squad. As crazy as it sounds this woman is putting mean remarks on the internet about my friends daughter. The girls are 15 and this woman is at least in her 40’s. In the old days things like this would be taken care of differently, but now it seems the only way to get anything done is through a law suit or the police and with the cut backs the police departments have had to make, this is the last thing they want to deal with. Now it seems that things have escalated at school and the kids have started harassing her. Going to the school has only instigated more taunting. What can I tell her to do before things get more out of control.
