admissible in court?

What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state?MA

The state has brought charges (police) on Person A for assault & battery on Person B.

Person B filed for and was granted a restraining order on Person A.

Person A tried to get a restraining order on Person B and was denied.

Person A was arraingned on the charge of A & B -- AND THEN filed a false charge against Person B --> can that information be admissible in the trial against Person A?

(That Person A waited 12 days after the incident, after being served a restraining order and being arraingned on criminal charges to then "decide" that they were the "victim.")

Also in the hearing for the restraining order, Person A NEVER stated that they were the "victim."

Just trying to understand how the courts work and seeking justice....
Thanks

Was Person B arrested on that false charge?

Person B was required to attend a Clerk Magistrates Hearing at which time Person A's lawyer stated that Person A would be happy to drop the complaint of A&B on Person B, if Person B would refuse to appear as a witness for the state.

Person B refused as Person B did nothing wrong.

The Clerk allowed the false complaint to become a charge and Person B was arrainged.
