chris parkerMalicious prosecution
Hey gang quick question. I have just heard from a civil attorney who wants to discuss a criminal case in which I was the prosecutor. It sounds like the former aquitted defendant is suing the former victim for malicious prosecution. What rights, duties, and ethical obligations should I be aware of?
