If a prosecutor submits a criminal complaint to a magistrate and gets a warrant, but knows that the allegations in the complaint are false, can the prosecutor be prosecuted for perjury?
If a prosecutor submits a criminal complaint to a magistrate and gets a warrant, but knows that the allegations in the complaint are false, can the prosecutor be prosecuted for perjury?
In a very abstract sense, depending on the full facts and state law, it's possible that the act could be perjury. But in real world terms, it's exceptionally unlikely that you could build a case that the prosecutor actually knew the allegations to be false. The rest will depend on the laws of your state.
If you get (or got) the charge dismissed, discuss your options with your criminal defense lawyer.
