- Scope — State-compensation claims and public-law remedies arising from unlawful administrative or police conduct.
- Immediate task — Identify the alleged unlawful act, responsible organ and prerequisite procedure.
- Boundary — If another practice owns a distinct issue, use Related topics below rather than duplicating that analysis here.
Decision map
Keep the question bounded.
- Define the official conduct and resulting harmIdentify the agency and officers, legal power invoked, detention, force, seizure or other act, and the personal, property or business loss alleged.
- Preserve proof of illegality and lossCollect decisions, custody and medical records, video, witness evidence, property inventories, complaints and a supported calculation of compensable damage.
- Sequence correction and compensation claimsDetermine whether illegality must first be confirmed and route complaints, reconsideration, litigation and state-compensation applications without missing separate deadlines.
