Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in New York
police violates rights
my son was in a fight, he got stab when the police question him he lied. the police found out he lied he caught a charge. the police knows who stabed him they never picked up the guy i belive on purpose because of the lie-the police spoke to the principal in the school a week after the incident the principal told the police that the younger siblings of the guy that my son fought goes to the school-so they know who did it-everybody knows who did it. the day my son got arrested for the lie. the lead detective told my son he knows who cut his face and asked him if he wanted him to pick him up-my son said yes and was given a summons which he was conviceted and had to do community service (sealed) i think my son rights were violated this happened back in may 07 nassau county, should we pursue this ?

Re: police violate rights
Your description is rather confusing. You need to contact a civil rights lawyer and explain it a bit more slowly. If you are interested in speaking to me about it, please contact me through the links below.
Be advised you may have already run out of time to sue the county in state court. You only have a 90 day window to serve a notice with claim. Do not delay in seeking an attorney.
Good luck.
