Personal Injury and Wrongful Arrest
False Arrest
I would like to continue with my discussion about false arrests from my previous entry entitled False Arrests and Personal Injury.
The first scenario I described was involving shopping department stores.
Another example is where an individual is arrested by police officers. The police officers might be acting on information from another individual or their own investigation.
If the individual has not committed the crime and is wrongfully arrested they may have potential grounds to start a lawsuit against the police officers. In this scenario the individual would not only be starting a lawsuit against the police officers but also the police department itself.
One must keep in mind that lawsuits against police officers are very complex and involve a number of common law factors. Ensure you speak with an experienced personal injury lawyer.
