Someone tricked my to go to his apartment, telling me to wait outside and he would take me to lunch. He then call the police and I don't know what he told the police. THe police gave me harassment and trespass summons. What charges and lawsuits police can place on him if I give police evidence of his lies? What lawsuits I can raise against him? My summons were already dismissed by the court judge.

First of all, does he have anything you would want. You can file for a restraining order that will not permit him to come near you. If he does, he will be arrested. \n\nI have known of one restraining order that require the bad guy to move because his apartment was within the prohibited distance. That is probably all you can do. The police will give him a warning at the most. All the States, cities and counties are too low on money to do anything else. It is too expensive to have a trial for something that only hurt someones feelings and left them feeling embarrassed and angry. \n\nToo bad, he should not get away with it. I had a similar thing happen to me. I decided to just forgive the guy to get it off my mind. He wasn't worth the time I was spending thinking about him.\n\nHere is something I learned many years ago and it is still my best friend in cases like this...\n\n"If they haven't taken away your happiness, they haven't won"

I don't know the laws wherever it is you are... But that is actually False Imprisonment. He kept you against your will, and you were endangerd, and also felt endangered. \nThere are many things that he can get into trouble for, but also, you broke the law yourself so you have to keep that in mind also.\nIf you would like to know more, contact me. I would be glad to tell you what i know.

I'm so sorry about this incident. I would file a complaint with the Pompton Lakes Safety Director, if there is one, if not, the Mayor. You didn't mention your outcome in court, but you should to seek the advise of counsel...you may have a case for false arrest and/or a Section 1983 action (basically a violation of your civil rights). Most police are honest and work hard at a tough job, but there are those that cross the line. Don't let this go, and allow this cop to railroad another innocent person. Good luck!

the police put you thru a kangeroo court before anything else... they dont have to be truthfull, their job is to try to find the facts.. stick to your story and call an attorney, they cant do anything and they know it... their just trying scare tactics

Go to the police station and file a report. That will put him on their records. Although he probably needs to have done something to you or someone you know in order for them to accept it. But threats count as "doing something" so you can say he verbally threatened you or someone you know and you are afraid that his actions will go farther and you want to just make the report so the cops will know if anything does happen. Talk to them and they'll help you go about it the right way.

why'd you have a court appearance? sounds like false arrest under habeus corpus.

You need to talk to the police about this matter and you need proof that the person that filed the false report against you is the one you think it is and not someone else.

There is a possible charge of filing a false police report. I would want to look into it a little more.

what i think you should do is get a good lawyer to represent you.  If you were falsely accused the police probably have no evidence of the crime.  But honestly i don't know if you will be able to sue, unless you have any visible harm, and if you do have any bumps or bruises from the arrest take pictures to present in a court. that's all i can tell you sorry if it isn't any help!

Filing a false police report is in itself a crime.  Contact your local PD and provide all pertinent information. \nThe PD did nothing wrong. They were 'doing their job'. Most officers I know are very perturbed when a false report is filed. \nOnce the issue of filing the false report is established, you can then sue former employer for false arrest.\nThere's also the issue of slander, if these people are willing to provide a statement and appear in court as a witness.\n\nGood luck.

Honestly, where do you some of you people get the ideas you get?\n\nTo the asker:  assuming everything you said here is 100% factual, and assuming you didn't leave anything out, and assuming you have *all* the facts in the first place, then no, it doesn't sound like there was any probable cause to pull you over.  \n\nHowever, here's what I suspect, because I have done this very thing:\n\nI'm the cop you and your friend drove past when he/she yelled whatever they yelled.  Evidently, your friend wanted to come to the attention of the police, so I'm generally happy to oblige.  You don't say (and probably don't know) if it was the same cop who pulled you over, but it doesn't matter...we've got radios, ya' know?  \n\nSo anyway, back to your friend who wants to be a policeman's project:\n\nWhether I take off after you or I radio to one of my partners, one of us catches up to you.  You don't signal where you should, you have a taillight out, your registration is expired, etc., etc., and that provides me probable cause to stop you.  It's quite possible, especially if you developed an attitude problem, that I will tell you the only reason you're being stopped is because of your friend, the loudmouth.\n\nThe liberal among us will not like this, I know.  However, probable cause in this state is probable cause, and the motivation behind my use of probable cause is irrelevant to your guilt or innocence.  \n\nSo if you're right, the cop was wrong and you certainly do want to talk to an attorney.\n\nIf I'm right, you got pulled over because your idiot friend brought your car to the attention of the police, and it sounds like you paid a price for that.  Choose your friends better next time you're drinking and driving.\n\nAnd no, yelling out of your car is not disorderly conduct in California.  It's a rude and stupid exercise of your right to free speech.\n\nShouting something at the police is not an indication that you're not a reasonable person, and being an unreasonable person does not provide the police with reasonable cause to pull you over.  Holy cow, if this were true I could pull people over a hundred times a day.  \n\nBeing disrespectful to the police does not qualify as disorderly conduct.  It qualifies as stupid, but stupid does not equate to probable cause to effect a detention or make an arrest.  Don't I wish.\n\nYeah, we're always making things up just to pull you over.  I routinely risk being convicted of perjury and jailed for civil rights violations just to see if you've got big hooters, are drunk, or have a little weed in your car.  Please.\n\nYou're welcome to have just about any bumper sticker you want on your car and not have to worry about getting a ticket.  First of all, like I said, we do live in the land of free speech so you can have anything you want on your bumper.  If it says "I'm plotting to kill the President," you might end up with a visit from the Secret Service, but you can't get a ticket for displaying even an obscene bumper sticker.  \n\nHanging out the window is a good indication that you're not wearing your seat belt, but I'm not sure I'm familiar with a crime called "reckless endangerment."  \n\nI'm glad showing poor judgement doesn't really qualify as cause for the police to investigate.  If it did, I would literally spend my entire day talking to people with extraordinarily poor judgement who weren't committing a crime.  I do enough of that now.\n\nAnyway, I hope the cops had a really wonderful reason for pulling you over, once your friend decided you needed to stopped.  I hope their reason is enough to get you into court and convicted, if you really were driving in violation of the drunk driving laws in this state.  Your decision to do so put a huge number of people at risk...all of whom, except yourself, would have been innocent victims of your profoundly poor

Call the cops. Let them get it on record. You swear out a complaint and let the police handle it. Get a restraining order also. If the person violates that order, they will be arrested. If you are being threatened, that is technically assault and you do NOT have to take threats.

You run a thin line with slander, especially if he has put the incident behind him. Discuss it with the police first to see if anything can be done

Try to get pics of him violating the restraining order.  ALSO get a tape recorder and tape it anytime he threatens you.  Verbal threats are a violation of yet another law. As soon as you have these things take them to the police station and tell them everything and show them your proof.  Be very careful, sometimes these types of people will escalate the bad behavior instead of giving up and going away.

The short answer is that if you have no solid evidence, the police will not listen to you. Also, the person you accuse could sue you for slander.

You DO have legal recourse, regardless of anything you may have done to pizz her off.  She might just blow away if you were to confront her and answer her questions and take her hostile comments so she she could get it out of her system.  Then again, she could cut the brake cables on your car.  Obviously she is obsessed with knowing fine details about who you are, and is in a poor state of mental health.  Such people can be very dangerous.  Get in touch with local law enforcement now and ask them what can be done.  Your coworkers are witnesses.  The police are there to protect you, not to judge you.

Your downstairs neighbors are carrying out a campaign of harassment against you.\n\nThis is ILLEGAL, and you can get help.\n\nFirst, do the best you can to document everything they do - take pictures of any damage they cause, keep whatever written records you can of any kind of false legal complaint they file against you, tape any threats they make to you verbally or by phone and keep a "harassment diary" - take a notebook and every time they harass you, either you or your boyfriend write down, IN DETAIL every thing they do.\n\nMeanwhile, contact your local police department, ask to speak to a detective, and file a formal complaint. Then go to your county courthouse (with your boyfriend, if possible) and file for an Order of Protection.\n\nOnce this Order of Protection is granted, if your neighbors continue harassing you, you can call the police on them - they will be in contempt of court every time they harass you, and they CAN AND WILL GET LOCKED UP.\n\nSitting in a holding cell has a way of getting people's undivided attention - hopefully, when the cops slap the handcuffs on them, they'll calm the hell down, and stop bothering you and your boyfriend.\n\nGood luck!
