There are always legal remedies to civil rights violations. These are lawsuits that allow for a person to sue for civil rights violations committed by government officials, such as police officers.The two most commonly used are a Bivens lawsuit and a Section 1983 claim which is a claim under 42 USC § 1983 claim.
