Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in Indiana

Re: Invasion of privacy??

It is probably one person making the claim, but the state will always be the other party in a criminal case. The prosecutor works for the state, not any one individual.

As to what the charges could be for, that's almost impossible to know from the information you've provided. A criminal charge is probably not something you should try to take care of yourself though. You really should contact an attorney.

You may be able to find out more information about the charge by contacting the prosecutor in the case, but I wouldn't speak to him/her without a lawyer present.
