There is no "party attempting to bring charges". No one can be prosecuted for a felony under the United States constitution except upon presentment to and a favorable return from a Grand Jury in the district where the offense was alleged to be committed. It is the United States alone, the Department of Justice in particular, that has the right to present matters to a Grand Jury. Federal felonies are crimes, not private causes of action that would give rise to a private cause of action, if that's the meaning.
