Best Answer

Your Miranda rights are generally used when you are suspected of a crime and brought in for questioning. A law enforcement officer will read the rights to you, and you will tell him if you want to use them. If you want to use them, you don't speak to the police until you have an attorney.

Civil suits for not being read Miranda rights?

Civil suits for not being read Miranda rights are generally not successful because the failure to read Miranda rights does not invalidate a conviction or provide a separate cause of action in civil court. Miranda rights are a procedural safeguard to protect a suspect's Fifth Amendment rights against self-incrimination during custodial interrogations. If a person's Miranda rights are not read, any statements they make may be excluded from being used in a criminal trial, but it does not entitle them to file a civil suit.
