. Can you help me with this case Civil Rights Violations under * U.S.C. § *: This federal law allows individuals to sue state and local government actors for violating their constitutional rights. Equal Protection: You can argue that the sheriff's department treated you and your boyfriend differently based on your transgender status and relationship, violating the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. The case of Arriaga v. Dart discusses similar claims of discrimination and harassment based on transgender status against law enforcement officials. Due Process: You can argue that the harassment and arrests, especially the reopening of the old case, were done without due process of law.
