Legal Question in Criminal Law in California
I want to know if i would have a good chance to win a lawsuit against lasd? When i was arrested i had my medical card and my license, the officer called to verify my card was logit and everything came through. Now my understanding is that hash in cannibus so i should have never been arrested? I was not under the influence and the has was in my pocket. They did not read me my rights and they did not give me there badge numbers and i did not receive my booking paperwork, i arrived at the jail at 8:00 p.m but i was not booked till 4:00 a.m.... i was released on the day of my court with no charges filed. I want to sue for my property that was taken and for the fees for the towing. Do i have a case?

Unfortunately, absurd though it may be, hashish is treated differently than marijuana under California law. You're lucky. Deputy got him some free hash.
Nice try, no brass ring. You should be more concerned about the DA pursuing the criminal charges, which they can do for several years. If you get a letter from the DA saying they have filed, feel free to contact me if serious about getting the legal help you'll need.
