    Default How To File A Section 1983 Action

    My question involves civil rights in the State of: Tennessee

    OK, its just about impossible to find an attorney to represent you in a case where you have been done wrong by the police in my area ,so, i want to file my suit and go on pro-se.

    The problem is,im not sure WHERE to file my complaint and honestly i have no idea how to form the paperwork and summons.

    Do i just form it all out like i would a normal personal injury complaint? If so,where can i find models of this online?

    The paperwork would really be the only thing holding me back,and im working with days until the statute of limitations runs IF it starts to accrue from the time i was initially charged and not from the time of dismissal.
