In a civil context or criminal context? I assume you mean from the government and not a private person. In that case, someone who likes to take on civil rights cases, and has a lot of criminal law knowledge as well.





You might actually want to be filing a claim for malicious prosecution if you wanted to sue the police or something (depending on the circumstance). Or even a habeas corpus claim, which is when they don't tell you why you are being detained, and you need to demand it. (I assume you're out now though). You would have to prove that the cop or whoever had a personal vendetta against you, and zero basis for your arrest, prosecution, etc. And those are super hard to win. And the guy above me is right, it would be a civil claim. They call them 1983 claims, based on USC 1983, which allows you to sue particular government actors for torts.





EDIT: I just saw that the government dismissed your case. Ha ha, you have no grounds to sue - if they dismissed on their own, I doubt it was a ';personal vendetta.'; Sounds like you got a lucky break. Unless you can prove that it was totally personal and you did absolutely nothing to even be considered a suspect, you're SOL. Sorry, instead of thinking about getting back at them, you should be counting your lucky stars.
Sorry. You do not have a claim.





False imprisonment is a tort against other people, not the government or the police.
No one...unless you can prove prosecutorial misconduct or an outright lie by the person accusing you.
not a specific type.
