If you mean that the police accidentally bust into your home thinking they were at the right address, as long as it was an honest mistake, no harm no foul. If the police damaged property (like your front door, by kicking it in), they will have to repay you for that.

Best of luck.******The above is for informational purposes only and does not create an attorney-client privilege.******
