Yes, of course. You can sue anybody for any reason. Now, whether you will win the case is another matter.
Yes. Wrongful arrest is a form of police misconduct so you can sue the police for a civil lawsuit if such wrongful arrest takes place.
It would be difficult to prove in court, unless you had pretty solid evidence, since a policeman's opinion is highly respected as truthful by judges in general.
Even if you could prove that he did, you would have to also prove that he was not provoked.
A police officer who slanders you on his own in a manner that has nothing to do with his duties is just as liable as anyone else would be.
However, government officials are often subject to the principle of sovereign immunity when they are performing their duties in the officially prescribed manner, as they are considered to be acting not as private individuals but as agents of the government.
ADDITONAL: MUCH more would have to be known about the alleged "slandering" in order to render even a reasonably knowledgeable answer.
Not enough information is disclosed about the situation.
If they were simply doing their job and placed charges against you as a result of an observation or investigation, and you were later found not guilty, you probably have no case.
On the other hand if you are referring to a 100% entirely made-up case, not only can you sue the officer for damages, you can probably have them charged criminally.
yes but the judge/ jury probably won't beon your side yes but the judge/ jury probably won't beon your side
The generally answer is, yes, you can sue or file a lawsuit against anybody for any reason. You will only win (generally speaking) if you can prove it was a false arrest.
i say you should because those ******** will not care about you
If you've been falsely arrested and imprisoned then how did you post this question?
If that is against the law, yes.
get an attorney! and you have to have a good reson to file a lawsuit and have a good lawyer
An example of a wrongful arrest would be a retail employee or owner holding a customer against their wil with only probable cause, and the police arresting them with only their word against the customer's. People involved in a wrongful arrest case may file a lawsuit against the arresting officer, the police department, or township for damages-emotional or mental distress and embarrassment

You could try a citizen's arrest but the police man may refuse to be arrested. It is only a warranted police officer that is empowered by society to forcibly arrest someone.
police officers have a criteria on this. On the other hand,for an officer of the law, it would be unethical not to arrest someone he has seen comiting a crime.
You can view the arrest record of someone at your local police department. The arrest records are public and anyone can see them.
Yes, of course. An arrest warrant is a command from a judge to arrest a person. Usually a police officer has no choice and must arrest.
All laws are meant to be followed and abided by, therefore if a law is broken by someone the Police have the power to arrest you for doing so; as the Job of the Police is to do exactly that; (uphold the laws of the country being Policed). In conclusion the answer to the question is that any law, if broken allows the police to lawfully arrest.
