How do I find out why my ex-girlfriend is going to court?

Last week my girlfriend blamed me for damaging something on her property, which I did not do. She called the cops and they took fingerprints of the property, came and questioned me, then left. Before this incident I spent 80% of the time at her house so of course my fingerprints were there. I just wonder if I should be worrying about this?

Listen, the entire situation wreaks of a stench and I am fearful that you are going to be caught up in something that will be so blown out of proportion if you do not try and nip it in the bud.  Go and retain an attorney to help you here.  You need some muscle to inquire as to what is going on and if there is an investigation pending against you for any matter and to ask what the potential crime you may be charged with is.  It is not that I think you should be extremely worried.  I just think that you should be very, very cautious about it all.  It is always better to be prepared for the worst and hope for the best.  Good luck to you.
