What Is a Section 1983 Lawsuit?
A Section 1983 claim arises when someone who is acting under the color of law illegally deprives you of your civil rights. Section 1983 claims allow you to sue police officers and government officials for civil rights violations and are a powerful tool for seeking justice and trying to achieve police accountability.

What Are the Most Common Section 1983 Civil Rights Claims?
Some of the most common Section 1983 violations stem from police officer misconduct. Examples include:
• Wrongful arrest - purposefully arresting someone without a lawful reason
• Wrongful no-knock execution of a search warrant
• Falsifying evidence - planting, altering, or fabricating evidence to frame someone
• Excessive force - also known as police brutality

What Must Be Proven to Establish a Section 1983 Violation
To prove a Section 1983 violation, you must generally prove two things.
1) The defendant acted under the “color of law.” That means they’re using their position of legal authority to imply they are acting lawfully when, in fact, they’re acting illegally.
2) Their action or inaction deprived you of your rights.

What Is a Monell Claim?
Related to a Section 1983 Claim, a Monell Claim requires more than proving that a person acting under “color of law” violated your rights. To prove government liability in a Monell Claim, you must prove that an official policy or process of the government contributed to or directly led to your civil rights being violated.
