Can I sue a person for bail money who filed false assault charges which were dropped in court?

Can I sue a person who filed a false police report accusing me of an assault charge? At my arraignment I was placed on Supervised-O.R. After failing a urine analysis I was remanded in court on $65,000 bail. I was able to post bond after being in jail for 5 days and was released on my own recognizance. Upon my release I found I had lost my job for missing work and I had lost a week’s worth of pay while in jail. During pre-trial my attorney discovered that the accuser had a prior juvenile conviction for filing a false police report, but before my attorney was able to get a copy of their juvenile criminal record, the case was dismissed by the D.A. I am curious as to how strong of a civil case I have? And how likely is it that I’ll get my $6,500 back? I don’t feel I should be responsible for paying for anything that has to do with this case. There was never an assault, and the report was made out of revenge. The day after I ending my relationship with the accuser and told them they needed to move, the police came to my house while I was at work. I was never able to give my statement and side of the story until court despite vigorously trying to contact the officer who took the initial report.
