Settlement? You need to worry about your criminal charges first. If you were wrongfully convicted, what do you mean? Was the conviction reversed? Trespassing is a no intent crime -- you either trespass or you don't. In terms of leaving your child with a meth addict, not sure if I concur with your belief the police would do that -- child would go to foster care first.
In terms of suit, who are you suing?
