You have the right to make a complaint against a police officer for any improper police conduct.  The law requires this agency to have a procedure to investigate civilian complaints.  This agency may find after investigation that there is not enough evidence to warrant action on your complaint; even if that is the case, you have the right to make the complaint and have it investigated if you believe an officer behaved improperly.  It is against the law to make a complaint that you know to be false.  If you make a complaint against an officer knowing that it is false, you can be prosecuted.
