Filing a false report is a crime. You don't specify what allegations were made that were false. If the part of the statement that was false was important, then you could be charged with filing a false report. Of course it is unfair to the other person not to tell the truth. make an appointment with a lawyer and discuss the facts and how to deal with it.
