Can I sue for being arrested for something I did not do?

If you dont lose your job then let it go.

If your work is affected by it. then by all means take action. If your job fires you then you may have a case against them seeing as how you were found not guilty. I would be model employee seeing as how they may be looking for a legit reason to let you go.

These are the actual events that happened. Its sounds sooooooo unbelievable but I’m living it and its stressing me out. I have no idea who this lady is (no name. no nothing. the cops and the news paper said it was a lady) I have no reason to lie about this. Just seeking advice on what to do and if a lawsuit is necessary.

Usually masturbating can relieve stress.

like someone said already, why are you seeking legal advice on a car audio forum?...ask a lawyer

So just out of the blue, a random lady reported you were jackin off while drivin.
Question, I thought cops couldnt arrest off of hearsay in situations like this? Because anyone could just say anything about anyone at anytime and just have them arrested for revenge?

Aparently they can.

Im thinking I cut her off and she got pissed. Still no excuse for what she did. when women call the cops and say a guy did something to her, the guy id F_-_ed

BTW Lawers cost lots of $$$$ and Im still paying off my lawyer from the 1st trial

sounds like to me you pissed off a kids mom or something. she prob watched you leave one day and got your tag number and car info. then had a friend of hers follow you and call in a bullshit story. that i doubt you would be able to prove tho. but it does sound like slander to me. and if more of an investigation had happened it could have helped you out b/c cops, lawyers and others would be pissed to know that shes causing the county money over a fake bullshit story. but deff call and lawyer and see what you can do.

it was prob set up. and i know here people are always getting pulled on the weekend b/c somebody says they pulled a gun on them. i cant count how many times i have seen cars pulled at the local cruise spot gettin searched for guns and they never have them so they dont get arrested. but in his case i guess since she ID'ed him then that gave the cops the right to arrest him since they had a witness. but if she fuked up and changed her story then im sure the cops are gettin pissed b/c thats wasting their time........which might help him out if he decides to take legal action.

1st thing tomorrow morning call an attorney and ask him/her.They would be considerably more qualified to answer these questions than a bunch of car audio nuts...

I have searched and searched news papers in the Houston adn Houston area and found nothing of this. I am not sure when this actually was suppose to take place, but something like this would take a while in the legal system. It is by LAW, one CANNOT be arrested for hearsay, but it DOES happen. It is possible, but I call............

What are you talking about? Why is this hearsay? Maybe I missed something - I have not read the whole thread.

See, thats the difference, they were searched/detained/questioned not arrested, thats what I was getting at. You cant be convicted on hearsay.

But I guess it happened.
