Yes, you can sue the state for wrongful arrest or imprisonment if you were arrested for a crime you did not commit. This typically falls under civil rights violations, and you would need to demonstrate that law enforcement acted with negligence or malice. However, such cases can be complex and may require you to navigate legal immunities and procedural rules specific to the state. Consulting with a qualified attorney experienced in civil rights law is essential for pursuing such a claim.
