Amanda Bynes, who was recently taken into custody after officers allegedly found marijuana in her apartment following building complaints, has revealed her plans to file a lawsuit against the New York City Police Department for her "mistaken arrest."

The 27-year-old actress was arrested in the middle of widespread speculation that she is either mentally ill or under the influence of drugs.

Just after her detainment, Bynes started sharing her thoughts about her experience, with her fans on Twitter, Stuff.co.nz reported.

"I'm suing NYPD for illegally entering my apartment, lying about drugs on me and lying about me tampering with non existent drug paraphernalia, then I'm suing for being put into a mental hospital against my will," she wrote.

"Then I'm suing for being put into a mental hospital against my will, then locked up overnight for coming home after a facial and working out with my trainer like the good girl that I am," she tweeted.

Byne also claimed that she is "allergic to alcohol and drugs" and is "proud" to not be a user of either.

The 'Big Fat Liar' star, who apparently threw a marijuana water pipe out of her midtown apartment window when cops arrived, also tweeted that she is suing her apartment complex for "lying" about her smoking in her building.

Byne closed the sermon by saying: "Thankfully I'm an educated multi-millionaire who knows better than to speak to perverted unjust cops without my lawyer.
