Private Citizen Complaint
In New Jersey you can be charged with a crime by anyone who can establish to a window clerk that there’s probable cause, which means that there is great potential for false allegations that REQUIRE you to appear in court at least once and at most multiple times. These are called private citizen complaints and if you are charged with one it is good to consult with a licensed attorney who practices in the criminal courts so you can learn about the process and your best course of action.
