Any hearing in court should be either audio recorded and/or recorded by a court reporter. You could request a transcript of the hearing which could be used to impeach the witness at a later date. Impeaching is the fancy term for calling someone a liar in court by showing the inconsistency in their... View More

You could file a Motion To Suppress Evidence, but if LEO had any plausible reason to think you were driving, it will be denied.

While such a case is possible, there are two hurdles that may be difficult to overcome.
First, you must prove they did something wrong. Bruised can happen without (and with) malpractice.
Second, your harm must be sufficient to warrant a lawsuit and what you describe may not be.

You have to cross examine the LEO when he testifies against you. Does not sound like heresay for all of those facts, but probably some of it is. Without an arrest I doubt enough damages exist for a civil rights suit. Some other lawyer might want to sue, but I would not.

That sounds like a potential breach of contract action on each refund. Possible class action. But it sounds like you have no evidence. Consult with an attorney. But be advised it may not be a TN jurisdictional matter.

That would be a GTLA suit which few lawyers know how to file. It appears that you do not have any damages, so I do not recommend filing suit.
