Legal Answers
5 Questions Answered
- Q. Can I sue in civil court for errors made in a criminal trial that ultimately resulted in a 50 to life sentence.
- A: Civil suits stemming from criminal trials have extraordinarily high burdens. More importantly, however, prosecutors have complete immunity from civil lawsuits for several reasons. There have only been a handful of cases in the US where a prosecutor committed such an injustice that it equated to fraud on the court and all parties involved. Your only remedy remains in the higher courts to review any legal error that may have occurred during the trial.
- Q. Isn't it against the law (CA) to file a false police report?
- A: This is True. It is against the law to knowingly report a crime or file a false police report. Be aware that it will be your burden to provide the proof of the falsity--Law enforcement will not jump through hoops for you because they typically get many individuals claiming that a report was "false." Therefore, gather any evidence (recordings, text messages, witnesses, etc.) that would give the reporting officer(s) a clear picture that the reporting party had recklessly provided information that was not true to police. If there is/was a motive behind what they did, provide that as well to give the department enough to support a subsequent investigation and ultimately a filing of criminal charges by the local District Attorney's office.
- Q. I’m getting stalked and harassed from my socials. Should I contront them to have proof I tried to stop it?
- A: Stalking and harassing conduct have specific definitions so it's going to depend on how far the other person goes when it comes to following you on social media versus contacting you on those platforms. For example, if they follow you without making direct contact with you, they are allowed to do this. However, if you've been receiving unwelcomed communications (offensive or annoying contact with you specifically), then this changes things. Whether you respond or not won't make a difference in the eyes of a judge contemplating whether or not to grant you a Temporary Restraining Order. On the one hand, it will show that you made it clear that you did not welcome any of this person's contact with you. On the other hand, if they already know you do not want them communicating with you before this started happening, then you don't need to let them know that again. As a general rule, the more egregious the contact (offensive, constant, annoying, disturbing), the more likely a judge will order that person to cease communicating with you directly and indirectly.
